to.wide: Functions to convert between long and wide representations of...

In MethComp: Analysis of Method Comparison studies

Description

These functions are merely wrappers for reshape. Given the complicated syntax of reshape and the particularly simple structure of this problem, the functions facilitate the conversion enormously.

Usage

  to.wide( data, warn=TRUE )
  to.long( data, vars )
  

Arguments

data	A Meth object.
warn	Logical. Should a warning be printed when replicates are taken as items?
vars	The variables representing measurements by different methods. Either a character vector of names, or a numerical vector with the number of the variables in the dataframe.

Details

If data represents method comparisons with exchangeable replicates within method, the transformation to wide format does not necessarily make sense. Also recognizes a

Value

A dataframe.
