I have a data frame which is structured like this one:
dd <- data.frame(round = c("round1", "round2", "round1", "round2"),
var1 = c(22, 11, 22, 11),
var2 = c(33, 44, 33, 44),
nam = c("foo", "foo", "bar", "bar"),
val = runif(4))
round var1 var2 nam val
1 round1 22 33 foo 0.32995729
2 round2 11 44 foo 0.89215038
3 round1 22 33 bar 0.09213526
4 round2 11 44 bar 0.82644723
From this I would like to obtain a data frame with two lines, one for each value of nam
, and variables
var1_round1
, var1_round2
, var2_round1
, var2_round2
, val_round1
, val_round2
. I would really like to find a dplyr solution to this.
nam var1_round1 var1_round2 var2_round1 var2_round2 val_round1 val_round2
1 foo 22 11 33 44 0.32995729 0.8921504
2 bar 22 11 33 44 0.09213526 0.8264472
The closest thing I can think of would be to use spread()
in some creative way but I can't seem to figure it out.
