You can use the following methods to add a ‘total’ row to the bottom of a data frame in R:

Method 1: Use Base R

rbind(df, data.frame(team='Total', t(colSums(df[, -1]))))

Method 2: Use dplyr

library(dplyr)

df %>%
  bind_rows(summarise(., across(where(is.numeric), sum),
                         across(where(is.character), ~'Total')))

The following example shows how to use each method in practice with the following data frame:

#create data frame
df <- data.frame(team=c('A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E', 'F'),
                 assists=c(5, 7, 7, 9, 12, 9),
                 rebounds=c(11, 8, 10, 6, 6, 5),
                 blocks=c(6, 6, 3, 2, 7, 9))

#view data frame
df

2    B       7        8      6
3    C       7       10      3
4    D       9        6      2
5    E      12        6      7
6    F       9        5      9

Example 1: Add Total Row Using Base R

We can use the rbind and colSums functions from base R to add a total row to the bottom of the data frame:

#add total row to data frame
df_new <- rbind(df, data.frame(team='Total', t(colSums(df[, -1]))))

#view new data frame
df_new

   team assists rebounds blocks
1     A       5       11      6
2     B       7        8      6
3     C       7       10      3
4     D       9        6      2
5     E      12        6      7
6     F       9        5      9
7 Total      49       46     33

Notice that a row has been added to the bottom of the data frame that shows the sum of the values in each column.

Example 2: Add Total Row Using dplyr

The following code shows how to use functions from the package in R to add a total row to the bottom of the data frame:

library(dplyr)

#add total row to data frame
df_new <- df %>%
            bind_rows(summarise(., across(where(is.numeric), sum),
                                   across(where(is.character), ~'Total')))

#view new data frame
df_new

   team assists rebounds blocks
1     A       5       11      6
2     B       7        8      6
3     C       7       10      3
4     D       9        6      2
5     E      12        6      7
6     F       9        5      9
7 Total      49       46     33

Notice that a row has been added to the bottom of the data frame that shows the sum of the values in each column.

Also notice that this method produces the same results as the base R method.
