Finally, there are a few helpful functions to merge tibble. Various types of joins are supported—for example, inner_join, left_join, and right_join. The main difference among these is related to which rows are kept from two tibble in the event there is no match.

astate <- tibble(Name=state.name, Abbr=state.abb) 
astate 
 
tstate %>% left_join(astate, by="Name") 

The output of the preceding code is as follows:
