pivot_wider 仅在 R 中的一列上

pivot_wider only on one column in R

这是我的 df:

   Analyte    name         Limit_Type
   <chr>      <chr>        <chr>     
 1 " BOD(C)"  Limit1       " 50%ile" 
 2 " BOD(C)"  Limit1_Value "10"         
 3 " CBOD(C)" Limit1       " 90%ile" 
 4 " CBOD(C)" Limit1_Value "15"      
 5 " CBOD(C)" Limit2       " NA"     
 6 " CBOD(C)" Limit2_Value  NA 

我想基本上“传播”或 pivot_wider() 'Limit_Type' 列,以便我的 df 看起来像这样:

   Analyte    Limit_Type Limit
   <chr>      <chr>      <chr>
 1 " BOD(C)"  " 50%ile"  10    
 2 " CBOD(C)" " 90%ile"  15    
 3 " CBOD(C)" "NA"       NA    

这可以用 dplyr 实现吗?

谢谢。

您可以根据 'Value' 的存在将 name 列更改为 LimitLimit_Type。使用 pivot_wider

以宽格式获取数据
library(dplyr)
library(tidyr)

df %>%
  mutate(name = ifelse(grepl('Value', name), 'Limit', 'Limit_Type')) %>%
  pivot_wider(names_from = name, values_from = Limit_Type, values_fn = list) %>%
  unnest(cols = c(Limit_Type, Limit))

#  Analyte    Limit_Type Limit
#  <chr>      <chr>      <chr>
#1 " BOD(C)"  " 50%ile"  10   
#2 " CBOD(C)" " 90%ile"  15   
#3 " CBOD(C)" " NA"      NA   

数据

df <- structure(list(Analyte = c(" BOD(C)", " BOD(C)", " CBOD(C)", 
" CBOD(C)", " CBOD(C)", " CBOD(C)"), name = c("Limit1", "Limit1_Value", 
"Limit1", "Limit1_Value", "Limit2", "Limit2_Value"), Limit_Type = c(" 50%ile", 
"10", " 90%ile", "15", " NA", NA)), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA, -6L))
