In bpbond/cosore: Continuous Soil Respiration Database

Description

Simple function to gather (reshape) data.

Usage

minigather(
  x,
  gather_cols,
  category_col_name,
  value_col_name,
  new_categories = NULL
)

Arguments

x	Data frame to reshape
gather_cols	Names of columns to gather, character vector
category_col_name	Name of resulting category column, character
value_col_name	Name of resulting value column, character
new_categories	Optional new categories to use in place of gathered column names, character vector

Value

The data frame in long format.

Note

Base R's reshape sucks, while gather brings in tidyr, which in turn imports dplyr, ...way too heavy.

Examples

cosore:::minigather(cars, c("speed", "dist"), "var", "val")
