Hi R User, Would you suggest me on how I can build a pivot table using two 
variables? I want to put "text" in the table instead of value.  I have attached 
an example data and the type of table (FinalTable) I was looking for. I am 
looking for your suggestions. ThanksKG=====dat<-structure(list(tag = 
structure(c(1L, 1L, 1L, 2L, 3L, 4L, 5L, 6L, 6L, 7L, 7L, 8L), .Label = c("x1", 
"x2", "x3", "x4", "x5", "x6", "x7", "x8"), class = "factor"), time = 
structure(c(1L, 2L, 3L, 1L, 4L, 5L, 5L, 5L, 8L, 4L, 7L, 6L), .Label = 
c("2010-May 27", "2011-June 27", "2011-June 28", "2012-June 25", "2013-June 
21", "2014-Jan 05", "2014-July 27", "2015-April 07"), class = "factor"),     
states = structure(c(1L, 2L, 2L, 1L, 4L, 3L, 2L, 5L, 1L,     3L, 5L, 2L), 
.Label = c("A", "B", "C", "D", "Out"), class = "factor")), .Names = c("tag", 
"time", "states"), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA, -12L))
dat###table(dat$tag,dat$time)# it gives value but I want the name of the states 
in the table instead of value.#For examplefinalTable<-structure(list(tag =

finalTable
#How is it possible to get the finalTable as shown above?Any suggestions?
