skip

Skips the first 'n' rows of a table.

Usage

> [input-command] | skip (n)

Examples

If we open a file with a list of contacts, we get all of the contacts.

> open contacts.csv
───┬─────────┬──────┬─────────────────
 # │ first   │ last │ email
───┼─────────┼──────┼─────────────────
 0 │ John    │ Doe  │ doe.1@email.com
 1 │ Jane    │ Doe  │ doe.2@email.com
 2 │ Chris   │ Doe  │ doe.3@email.com
 3 │ Francis │ Doe  │ doe.4@email.com
───┴─────────┴──────┴─────────────────

To ignore the first 2 contacts, we can skip them.

> open contacts.csv | skip 2
───┬─────────┬──────┬─────────────────
 # │ first   │ last │ email
───┼─────────┼──────┼─────────────────
 0 │ Chris   │ Doe  │ doe.3@email.com
 1 │ Francis │ Doe  │ doe.4@email.com
───┴─────────┴──────┴─────────────────
