我正在使用 lme4 附带的数据集,并且正在尝试学习如何应用 reshape2 将其从长转换为宽 [帖子末尾的完整代码]。
library(lme4)
data("VerbAgg") # load the dataset
数据集有 9 个变量;“Anger”、“Gender”和“id”不随“item”而变化,而“resp”、“btype”、“situ”、“mode”和“r2”则不同。
我已经成功地使用 reshape() 将数据集从长格式转换为宽格式:
wide <- reshape(VerbAgg, timevar=c("item"),
idvar=c("id", 'Gender', 'Anger'), dir="wide")
这产生了对 123 个变量的 316 个观测值,并且似乎已正确转换。但是,我没有成功使用 reshape/reshape2 来重现宽数据框。
wide2 <- recast(VerbAgg, id + Gender + Anger ~ item + variable)
Using Gender, item, resp, id, btype, situ, mode, r2 as id variables
Error: Casting formula contains variables not found in molten data: Anger
我可能不是 100% 清楚 recast 如何定义 id 变量,但我很困惑为什么它没有看到“愤怒”。相似地,
wide3 <- recast(VerbAgg, id + Gender + Anger ~ item + variable,
id.var = c("id", "Gender", "Anger"))
Error: Casting formula contains variables not found in molten data: item
谁能看到我做错了什么?我很想更好地了解熔化/铸造!
完整代码:
## load the lme4 package
library(lme4)
data("VerbAgg")
head(VerbAgg)
names(VerbAgg)
# Using base reshape()
wide <- reshape(VerbAgg, timevar=c("item"),
idvar=c("id", 'Gender', 'Anger'), dir="wide")
# Using recast
library(reshape2)
wide2 <- recast(VerbAgg, id + Gender + Anger ~ item + variable)
wide3 <- recast(VerbAgg, id + Gender + Anger ~ item + variable,
id.var = c("id", "Gender", "Anger"))
# Using melt/cast
m <- melt(VerbAgg, id=c("id", "Gender", "Anger"))
wide <- o cast(m,id+Gender+Anger~...)
Aggregation requires fun.aggregate: length used as default
# Yields a list object with a length of 8?
m <- melt(VerbAgg, id=c("id", "Gender", "Anger"), measure.vars = c(4,6,7,8,9))
wide <- dcast(m, id ~ variable)
# Yields a data frame object with 6 variables.
