Hello,
A quick question for my edification. When I run the following (R 2.8.1 on
Microsoft Windows):
> d = data.frame(x1=c(1,2),x2=c(3,4),y1=c(5,6),y2=c(7,8))
> reshape(d,varying=c("y1","x1","y2","x2"),v.names=c("y","x"),dir="long")
I found myself surprised by the results--the column labeled "y" is actually
the data from "x1" and "x2", and the column labeled "x" is actually the data
from "y1" and "y2".
Is this behaviour of reshape as intended? That is, have I missed something
in the documentation?
Many thanks for any comments.
