Reordering columns in a large dataframe

Question

Using the following example dataframe:

a <-  c(1:5)
b <- c(\"Cat\", \"Dog\", \"Rabbit\", \"Cat\", \"Dog\")
c <- c(\"Dog\", \"Rabbit\", \"Cat\", \"Do         


        

Answer 1

The package dplyr and the function dplyr::relocate, a new verb introduced in dplyr 1.0.0, does exactly what you are looking for.

df %>% dplyr::relocate(b, c, .after = f)
