# Kmisc

Kmisc is a package chock full of miscellaneous functions that intend to make

the R programming process easier. The functions range from:

  * A faster implementation of `reshape2::melt` for `data.frame`s and `matrix`'s,

  * Utility functions for generating and styling R Markdown documents,

  * A simple wrapper to `awk`,

  * Functions for reading in subsets of very large files:

  * * `extract_rows_from_file` pulls specific rows from a (potentially large)

  tabular data file, where we only take rows for which a particular column

  entry matches a list of desired elements,

  * * `split_file` splits a file on a particular column into separate, smaller

  files, so that these smaller files are more amenable to parallel processing,

  * Faster implementations of some common R functions; e.g. `counts` is a faster

  version of `table` for single vectors; `tapply_` is a faster `tapply` for the

  common case of splitting an atomic vector by another atomic vector,

  `factor_` is a faster `factor`...

  * And more! Browse the index to get an idea of everything that's there.
