Transforming Data Frames with R: Converting Wide Format to Long Format Using Dplyr and Tidyr
The problem is asking to transform a data frame Testdf into a long format, where each unique combination of FileName, Version, and Category becomes a single row. The original data frame has multiple rows for each unique combination of these variables. Here’s the complete solution: # Load necessary libraries library(dplyr) library(tidyr) # Define the data frame Testdf Testdf = data.frame( FileName = c("A", "B", "C"), Version = c(1, 2, 3), Category = c("X", "Y", "Z"), Value = c(123, 456, 789), Date = c("01/01/12", "01/01/12", "01/01/12"), Number = c(1, 1, 1), Build = c("Iteration", "Release", "Release"), Error = c("None", "None", "Cannot Connect to Database") ) # Transform the data frame into long format Testdf %>% select(FileName, Category, Version) %>% # Select only the columns we're interested in group_by(FileName, Category, Version) %>% # Group by FileName, Category, and Version mutate(Index = row_number()) %>% # Add an index column to count the number of rows for each group spread(Version, Value) %>% # Spread the values into separate columns select(-Index) %>% # Remove the Index column arrange(FileName, Category, Version) # Arrange the data in a clean order This will produce a long format data frame where each row represents a unique combination of FileName, Category, and Version.
