combineNamedTables: Creator of long data that preserves individual table...

In vreuter/SwissR: Swiss aRmy Knife: R Utilities

Description

combineNamedTables takes a (named) list of data tables and interprets each value in names(dts) as a constant value that should be added as newCol for each observation in each element of dts. That is, each table in dts gets a constant value for newCol. That value is the key/name in the dts list that maps to the table. The tables are then combined row-wise to create long data, but original table identity is preserved in newCol.

Usage

combineNamedTables(dts, newCol = "id")

Arguments

dts	Named list of data tables to combine.
newCol	Name for the new field to create in each table.

Value

Combined (long) data table.
