The **doBy** package includes a suite of simple, *pipe-friendly* arithmetic
helper functions that make common transformations clearer and more expressive
when using the native R pipe (`|>`).
These helpers let you write transformations in readable pipelines
without nested or hard-to-read expressions. All functions are
vectorized and work with scalars or numeric vectors.
---
## Available functions
- `add()`: add a constant
- `subtract()`: subtract a constant
- `mult()`: multiply by a constant
- `divide()`: divide by a constant
- `reciprocal()`: compute 1/x
- `pow()`: raise to a power
---
## Load doBy
```r
library(doBy)
x <- c(1, 2, 3)
# Addition
x |> add(5)
# [1] 6 7 8
# Subtraction
x |> subtract(1)
# [1] 0 1 2
# Multiplication
x |> mult(10)
# [1] 10 20 30
# Division
x |> divide(2)
# [1] 0.5 1.0 1.5
# Reciprocal
x |> reciprocal()
# [1] 1.0000000 0.5000000 0.3333333
# Power
x |> pow(2)
# [1] 1 4 9
x |>
