library(reshape2) ?cast Use acast or dcast depending on whether you want vector/matrix/array output or data frame output. Jean On Wed, Jun 5, 2013 at 9:35 AM, Bruce Miller batsnc...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all, I am revisiting using reshape2 to aggregate critter (bats) occurrences by time

Hi all, I am revisiting using reshape2 to aggregate critter (bats) occurrences by time blocks and have the final output for each row sum a percentage such that the row sums total 1 (100%). Reshape2 library is loaded on start. The old code I had stored in NotePad++ seems to no longer work as I

Hi again all, Several replied ASAP that I also needed reshape loaded and not just reshape2. Hmmm tried that and I had some output but not the correct format. What I need is to run simulations of time overlap between species as per the simulation program data input constraints: The basis for

Bruce, I'm not sure what's going on since I tried this on my Linux system running R 3.0.0 and just did: library(reshape2) help(cast) and the help for 'cast' came up. There was no indication to me that 'reshape' was needed and I can not see a dependency in CRAN for 'reshape'. But I built R from

There is indeed a ?cast help topic in reshape2, but there is no cast function. Instead there is dcast (returns a data.frame) and acast(returns an array). Bruce, you can try your original example with input.cast - dcast(input.melt, Species ~ Date, fun.aggregate = sum) Best, Ista On Wed, Jun 5,

Hi again all, As the original code lines I had dated back to 2007 that may have predated reshape2? In any case the use of *dcast *rather than /*cast*/ solved the issue. Then with 3 steps: Stop read Think I saw I just needed to change the line input.cast - cast(input.melt, Species ~ *Date*,
