Joris Van den Bossche commented on ARROW-13767:
-----------------------------------------------
bq. since dataset scans are no longer in deterministic order
What do you mean exactly? (did something change recently? I thought the scans
_can_ have deterministic order if needed) For example the Scanner has a
{{Head}} method to returns the first n rows (I would suppose this is
deterministic?)
> [R] Add Arrow methods slice(), slice_head(), slice_tail()

> Key: ARROW-13767

> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: R
> Reporter: Ian Cook
> Priority: Major
> Labels: query-engine
> Fix For: 7.0.0

>
> Implement [{{slice()}}, {{slice_head()}}, and
> {{slice_tail()}}|https://dplyr.tidyverse.org/reference/slice.html] methods
> for {{ArrowTabular}}, {{Dataset}}, and {{arrow_dplyr_query}} objects . I
> believe this should be relatively straightforward, using {{Take()}} to return
> only the specified rows. We already have a {{head()}} method which I believe
> we can reuse for {{slice_head()}}.
