That isn't exactly what I'm looking for...what i'm trying to do is 
transform something like the first one here to the second:

│ Row │ ct  │ x         │
├─────┼─────┼───────────┤
│ 1   │ "A" │ -1.17715  │
│ 2   │ "B" │ 0.781145  │
│ 3   │ "C" │ 0.74948   │
│ 4   │ "D" │ -1.88212  │
│ 5   │ "E" │ 1.30658   │

│ Row │ ct  │ "A"   │"B"             | "C"         | "D"        | "E"
├───┼─────┼───────|──-------┤------------|--------------
│ 1   │ -1.17715     │   0.781145 | 0.74948|-1.88212 | 1.30658
