I have a dataset, named the counted. It contains information about all the people who have been killed by US police officers in 2015. Currently, the dataset is ordered according to the day of year when these people have been killed.
What I would like to do is rearranging the dataset according to the state where they have been killed How can I do that in R?
Here is a summary description of my dataset:
