Tena koe Herwig
I am guessing that you are not using the terms 'table' and 'list' in the
R sense, and suggest you might want either the reshape() function or
Hadley Wickham's 'reshape' package.
For the former, if your data is in a data.frame (which is a special type
of list) then:
> herwig
A B C D
x 10 20 30 40
y 11 21 31 41
z 12 NA 32 42
> str(herwig)
'data.frame': 3 obs. of 4 variables:
$ A: int 10 11 12
$ B: int 20 21 NA
$ C: int 30 31 32
$ D: int 40 41 42
> reshape(herwig, varying=list(1:4), direction='long',
ids=row.names(herwig),
times=names(herwig))
time A id
x.A A 10 x
y.A A 11 y
z.A A 12 z
x.B B 20 x
y.B B 21 y
z.B B NA z
x.C C 30 x
y.C C 31 y
z.C C 32 z
x.D D 40 x
y.D D 41 y
z.D D 42 z
