I think we wandered away into a package rather than base R, but the request
seems easy enough.
Just FYI, Rich, as you seem not to have incorporated the advice we gave yet
about the first argument, your use of group_by() is a tad odd.
disc %>%
group_by(hour) %>%
group_by(day) %>%
group_by(year, month) %>%
summarize(disc_by_month, vol = mean(cfs, na.rm = TRUE))
Not sure why you use disc once and disc_by_month the second superfluous time
but if you read the manual page for group_by()
https://dplyr.tidyverse.org/reference/group_by.html you may note it tends to be
called ONCE with multiple arguments in sequence that specify what columns in
the data.frame to group by sequentially.
disc %>%
group_by(hour, day, year, month) %>%
summarize(vol = mean(cfs, na.rm = TRUE))
Not sure most people would group that way as the above sorts by hours first.
Many might reverse that sequence.

Eric/Avi:
That makes no difference:
> disc_by_month
# A tibble: 590,940 × 6
# Groups: year, month [66]
year month day hour min cfs

I wondered if I need to group first by hour, then day, then year-month.
This, too, produces the same output:
disc %>%
group_by(hour) %>%
group_by(day) %>%
group_by(year, month) %>%
summarize(disc_by_month, vol = mean(cfs, na.rm = TRUE))
And disc shows the read dataframe.
I don't understand why the columns are not grouping.
Thanks,
Rich
