Glad you found an answer, though it looks more self-educational than efficient
(see suggestions below). In the future, follow the recommendations of the
Posting Guide: use plain text, and provide a reproducible example. Some
elaborations on what "reproducible" means are [1][2][3]. One issue here was
that you did not include sample data to work with (I have assumed below that
ann_bias has no other columns than the biasNNNN columns, which is not the usual
case).
There are a number of ways to achieve the reshaping of your ann_bias data frame
that are less painful than your approach. For example, the base R "stack"
function:
bias2 <- stack( ann_bias )
names( bias2 ) <- c( "bias", "year )
levels( bias2$year ) <- sub( "bias", "", levels( bias2$year ) )
Or... if you are willing to venture into the tidyverse...
library(dplyr)
library(tidyr)
bias3 <- ( ann_bias
%>% gather( year, bias )
%>% mutate( year = factor( sub( "bias", "", year ) ) )
)
