How I create new dataset in R using the HELPmiss dataset

Using the HELPmiss dataset, I am only interested in patients that were randomized to a HELP clinic (treat = yes). How do I create a new dataset of just those people?

You can use the filter function to select only patients with treat = yes, using this code:

library(mosaicData)
library(tidyverse)

data(HELPmiss)

your_data <- HELPmiss %>%
  filter(treat == "yes")

The data looks like this:
