3.2 Creating tibbles

You can create a simple tibble with the tibble function, similarly as when you create a data frame:

mytibble <- tibble(
  letters = LETTERS,
  numbers = 1:26
)
  • Convert a data frame to a tibble:
mydf <- data.frame(letters = LETTERS,
  numbers = 1:26)
as_tibble(mydf)
  • Convert a tibble to a data frame (useful to interact with R code that doesn’t support tibbles):
as.data.frame(mytibble)
