[R] Help with transpose please.

Hi Bert and thank you for your assistance, I will try this.

I was not clear enough about the number of expected output columns based on the
DiagnosisCode column, my appologies.

Specifically, by virtue of the ClaimServiceID being the unique identifier, among
them there is one with 12 DiagnosisCodes so the record length would be at the
most 12 + the ClaimServiceID and the ClaimID

Example:
ClaimServiceID ClaimID DX1 DX2 DX3 DX4 DX5 DX6 DX7 DX8 DX9 DX10 DX11 DX12

And of course those ClaimServiceID?s with less than 12 DX?s would be NULL in
place of a DiagnosisCode

I will work with what you suggest and report back thank you again Sir!

1. "The max number of columns based on this transpose of the DiagnosisCode
column (in this dataset) is 12 if that is important to know."

I count about 20 different DX codes in the data you show, so I don't know
what this means.

2. I was not able to unambiguously parse your request (I admit that I just may
be dense) , but maybe split() is what you want, at least to start with:

##untested in the absence of a reprex
## dat is your data frame

split(dat, dat$ClaimServiceID)


This will give you a list of data frames, one for eachClaimServiceID. You can
order each list however you like using, e.g. lapply() with order().

If I have missed your intent completely, just say so and hopefully someone else
can help. Or follow Ramesh's suggestion

Cheers,
Bert

Good morning.


I have data in the form:

25      183236728 78119632        H43813

And wish to transpose to single record for single claimServiceID, ClaimID, and
Dx1,Dx2,Dx3, etc:

There can be multiple claimServiceIDs for a ClaimID so I want the unique
ClaimServiceID as the identifier when I join this data back into a longer single
record length file by that column.

    claimServiceID ClaimID  Dx1   Dx2    Dx3  ...etc
1 183056004    78044473 C562 C778 C784 C786 C7961 ...etc
2 183056008    78044473 C562 C778 C784 C786 C7961 ...etc


(If you would prefer the complete  dput of the 1272 records I will gladly
provide .Names = c("ClaimServiceID",

"ClaimID", "DiagnosisCode"), class = "data.frame",
row.names = c(NA,

-1272L))



At the moment the classes are:

classes <- as.character(sapply(Edit041IA, class))

classes

# [1] "integer"   "integer"   "character"
<---but do not have to be if that helps its just that's how the csv load
pulled them in

The max number of columns based on this transpose of the DiagnosisCode column
(in this dataset) is 12 if that is important to know.

I have looked at a variety of webpages and cannot get this right,

dta2 <- melt(dta1, id=c("ClaimServiceID","ClaimID"))
View(dta2)

dta3 <- cast(Edit041IA, ClaimServiceID ~ DiagnosisCode, ClaimID)

dta3 <- cast(Edit041IA, DiagnosisCode ~ ClaimServiceID, ClaimID)
View(dta3)

dta3 <- melt(Edit041IA, id=c("ClaimServiceID"))
View(dta3)

dta3 <- aggregate(Edit041IA, by=list(ClaimServiceID, ClaimID, DiagnosisCode))
View(dta3)


dta3 <- aggregate(Edit041IA, by=list(ClaimServiceID))
View(dta3)

 dta3 <- aggregate(Edit041IA, by=list(DiagnosisCode, ClaimServiceID,
ClaimID))
View(dta3)


I am sure it's a basic,  simple procedure, but I am pressed for time on this
one, any support will be greatly appreciated, thank you.
