[R] [R-pkgs] Reshape package: new version 0.5
Reshape version 0.5 === Reshape is an R package for flexibly restructuring and aggregating data. It's very much pivot table inspired, and it (hopefully) makes it very easy to view your data the way you want. You can find out more at http://had.co.nz/reshape The big news in this version of reshape is that I've renamed all the functions so they no longer conflict with any built in functions - deshape is now melt (think liquid data) and reshape is now cast (think solidifying data into the form you want). What else is new? * recast melts and casts your data in one step * column naming bugs fixed * easily display all margins with the argument margins=T in cast Please let me know what you think.

Perhaps I'm dense, but I cannot find the software at the URL you mention. There are links to a paper and a PDF slide presentation, but no R package. There is also a dangling link (http://r-project.org/) in the first sentence.

Hi, Randall, The first section of the webpage says: quote How to install install.packages(reshape) /quote Try the latter call at the R prompt.

Hi, Randall, The first section of the webpage says: quote How to install install.packages(reshape) /quote Yes, of course I saw that. Try the latter call at the R prompt. Huh? All the other packages I've installed, and there have been several, I've downloaded from CRAN and used: % R CMD INSTALL packageName.tar.gz How am I to do that when I don't have the package. Where is going to come from? But now I see that there is a reshape package in CRAN. I figured (yes, assumed) that since no mention of CRAN was made at the author's Web page that this release was not distributed there.

Where is going to come from? If you do not know about the R function that is shown to you in response to your question, wouldn't it help to check out its help page on your own first? By default install.packages() does the download _and_ the rest for you automagically so you don't need to do that in steps outside of R. But now I see that there is a reshape package in CRAN. I figured (yes, assumed) that since no mention of CRAN was made at the author's Web page that this release was not distributed there. There's a short lag between package upload and its showing up on CRAN, and possibly longer lag for that to show up on various mirror sites. If and when I announcement, I'd wait til I see it show up at least on the master site before posting, or ask the users to check for availability.
