Hi David,
you could use a mix of "plyr" and reshape:
# Example datasets
# Input
propsum <- data.frame(coverClass=c("C", "G", "L", "O", "S"),
R209120812=c(NA, 0.49, 0.38, 0.04, 0.09),
R209122212=c(0.05, 0.35, 0.41, 0.09, 0.10))
library(plyr)
xpropsum <- melt(propsum, id.var="coverClass", variable_name = "Image")
tpropsum <- reshape(xpropsum, timevar="coverClass", idvar="Image",
direction="wide")
colnames(tpropsum) <- sub("value.", "", colnames(tpropsum))
tpropsum
Cheers

Greetings all,
I am having difficulty transposing, reshaping, flipping (not sure which) a data
frame which is read from a DBF file. I have tried using t(), reshape() and
other approaches without success. Can anyone please suggest an way (elegant or
not) of flipping this data around ?
The initial data is like propsum (defined below), and I want it to look like
tpropsum once reformed.
propsum
coverClass R209120812 R209122212
1 C NA 0.05
2 G 0.49 0.35
3 L 0.38 0.41
4 O 0.04 0.09
5 S 0.09 0.10
tpropsum
Image C G L O L.1
1 R209120812 NA 0.49 0.38 0.04 0.09
2 R209122212 0.05 0.35 0.41 0.09 0.10
# Example datasets
# Input
propsum<- data.frame(coverClass=c("C", "G", "L", "O", "S"),
R209120812=c(NA, 0.49, 0.38, 0.04, 0.09),
R209122212=c(0.05, 0.35, 0.41, 0.09, 0.10))
# Desired output
tpropsum<- data.frame(Image=c("R209120812", "R209122212"),
C=c(NA, 0.05),
G=c(0.49, 0.35),
L=c(0.38, 0.41),
O=c(0.04, 0.09),
L=c(0.09, 0.10))
Thanks,
David
