I need help on reshaping my data frame which is currently in wide format. I ran the following codes to create panel ids based on the variable for country names "*Country"; *
*bop.df$id<-as.numeric(as.factor(bop.df$Country))* then ran the code below to reshape from wide to long format; *reshaped.bop <- pivot_longer(bop.df,3:17,names_to = "year", values_to = "value")* by running the code: *print( reshaped.bop), the following table in long format came out;* Country year bank_ratio Reserve_ratio broad_money id Angola 2006 24 77 163 1 Angola 2007 25 59 188 1 Botswana 2008 38 64 317 1 Botswana 2009 34 65 361 1 Zimbabwe 2010 42 57 150 1 Zimbabwe 2006 49 86 288 2 This, however, is not what i wanted. kindly help with the code that formats my table in the following way? Country Variables id year value Angola bank_ratio 1 2006 24 Angola bank_ratio 1 2007 25 Angola Reserve_ratio 1 2008 77 Angola Reserve_ratio 1 2009 59 Angola broad_money 1 2010 163 Angola broad_money 1 2006 188 Botswana bank_ratio 2 2006 38 Botswana bank_ratio 2 2007 34 Botswana Reserve_ratio 2 2008 64 Botswana Reserve_ratio 2 2009 65 Botswana broad_money 2 2010 317 Botswana broad_money 2 2006 361 Zimbabwe bank_ratio 3 2006 42 Zimbabwe bank_ratio 3 2007 49 Zimbabwe Reserve_ratio 3 2008 57 Zimbabwe Reserve_ratio 3 2009 86 Zimbabwe broad_money 3 2010 150 Zimbabwe broad_money 3 2006 288 Thank you Alternative email: addtar...@icloud.com/tchir...@rbz.co.zw Skype: admirechirume Call: +263773369884 whatsapp: +818099861504 [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
