Greg,

Of course, I’m not surprised by the results of your efforts.  Nice!

I myself don’t prefer the tidyverse, mainly except for ggplot, and instead find myself reaching for sqldf or data.tables where such benefit is needed.

YMMV,

Malcolm

very nice!

Greg

ps -- (feeling a challenge... :) for base R, dplyr::inner_join, the
following seem to work (i apologize that i don't know how people embed
org-frags in e-mail, or how important that format might be?)
