Dear R users, I have a problem with reshaping data. I know such questions have been asked before, but I can't get it right, neither with the reshape function nor with the melt function.
My dataset has about 407 variables and about 48000 cases. Each case looks as follows: V1 v2 v3 v4 v5 v6 v7 x1 y1 x2 y2 .... x200 y200 V1 is unique, v2-v7 are settings (that are linked to V1) and x and y are measures What I would like is for each V1 is a combination of its unique id, the settings that apply to that case and then the X and Y values (these are linked to each other, so belong in the same row). Something like this: V1 v2 v3 v4 v5 v6 v7 x1 y1 V1 v2 v3 v4 v5 v6 v7 x2 y2 ... V1 v2 v3 v4 v5 v6 v7 x200 y200 I have difficulties with the fact that I have two varying variables (x and y) that should stay together. Could anyone help this R-newbie out? Thanks in advance, Stijn ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
