More Efficient Tidyverse Code, Using Polars in the Background
Polars is a cross-language tool for manipulating very large data. However, one drawback is that the R implementation has a syntax that will look odd to many R users who are not used to Python syntax. The objective of tidypolars is to improve the ease-of-use of Polars in R by providing tidyverse syntax to polars.

Im using case_when() quite a lot, case_match() is new to me: #rstats

A general vectorised switch() — case_match
This function allows you to vectorise multiple switch() statements. Each case is evaluated sequentially and the first match for each element determines the corresponding value in the output vector. If no cases match, the .default is used. case_match() is an R equivalent of the SQL "simple" CASE WHEN statement. Connection to case_when() While case_when() uses logical expressions on the left-hand side of the formula, case_match() uses values to match against .x with. The following two statement…
