How can I convert a data frame into 3-D matrix with the values of two columns of data frame forming column...





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}

Let's say I have following dataframe

A B C C
a 1 ca da
b 2 cb db
c 3 cc dc



I want to convert above to the form .

[,,1]

a b c
1 ca 0 0
2 0 cb 0
3 0 0 cc



[,,2]

a b c
1 da 0 0
2 0 db 0
3 0 0 dc

  • not sure this is exactly what you want (its not 3D) but ... reshape2::dcast(data=dat, B ~ A, value.var="C", fill=0)

  • I'm not sure. I must admit, the fact you are using matrices/arrays to mix characters and zeros makes this a wee bit weird ;)

    okay, here is a monster! simplify2array(lapply(c("C", "D"), function(i) reshape2::acast(data=dat, B ~ A , value.var=i, fill=0)))
