Slice - dsofe/coderr GitHub Wiki
slice_min() and slice_max() to get the records that match values; can request a list of, e.g., "top 5"
# tibble with four cases
df <- tibble(x = 1:4, y = 4:1)
# subset, first 2 cases
df1 <- df %>%
slice_min(x, n = 2) # instead of filter(x <= 2)
# `n = 2` to fetch the 2 cases with the lowest values on x
# subset, other 2 cases
df2 <- df %>%
slice_max(x, n = 2) # instead of filter(x > 2)
# `n = 2` to fetch the 2 cases with the highest values on x
