Re: [R] Expanding rows of a data frame into multiple rows

Here's another approach using the plyr package: # Function to process each row of input: g <- function(d) { y <- unlist(d$observations) if(length(y) > 0) data.frame(site = d$site, sector = d$sector, y = y) else NULL } library('plyr') > ddply(input, .(site), g) site sector y 1

[R] Expanding rows of a data frame into multiple rows

2011-10-22 Thread Peter Meilstrup
The setup: I have a data frame where one column is in list mode, and each entry contains a vector of varying length. I want to expand this into a data frame with one row for each member of the list-mode column (the other values being replicated) For example, an example input and the desired output
