Re: [R] Reshape with multiple aggregation functions

2012-01-18 Thread Tal Galili
This sounds like a job for the melt/cast scheme for the reshape package.
There is a tutorial for using it here:

Good luck,

 col1 = c(rep(1,8),rep(2,8)),
 col2 = c(runif(8,min=0,max=1),runif(8,min=0,max=10))
 )

 In this example, I would like to end up with 2 rows (for the 2 ids) and
 different columns for phase-day. Values of col1
 should just be summed and for col 2 there should be a column with the
 mean AND one with standard deviation for each phase-day combination.

 Obviously the real data have much more number of columns therefore I guess
 I will need to provide a list of functions?

 Thank you in advance!

Hello, and thanks for your answer, 

I have melted the data already and can reshape it with cast alright, but I
still can find no way to provide a list of aggregate functions per column,
nor multiple aggregate functions for some of them (i.e. mean AND stdev)

It's not clear to me what you want to end up with.  You seem to want four 
separate columns for each phase-day combination.  But then you describe 
summary statistics for both col1 and col2.  Can you provide an example, 
test2, to make it clear?
