I have a monadic dataset that looks something like this:
df<-structure(list(Number = c("375_1", "375_1", "375_1", "375_1",
"375_1", "375_1", "375_1", "375_1", "647_1", "647_1", "647_1",
"647_1", "647_1", "647_1", "647_1", "647_1", "647_1", "647_1",
"647_1", "647_1"), year = c(1973, 1973, 1973, 1973, 1973, 1973,
1973, 1973, 1981, 1981, 1981, 1981, 1981, 1981, 1981, 1981, 1981,
1981, 1981, 1981), Country = c("AUT", "PRT", "CHE", "NOR", "SWE",
"ISL", "DNK", "GBR", "BRA", "CHL", "EGY", "IND", "ISR", "MEX",
"PER", "KOR", "PAK", "PHL", "TUN", "TUR")), row.names = c(NA,
-20L), class = c("tbl_df", "tbl", "data.frame"))
I would like to transform this dataset to have a dyadic structure based on the Number
column. In other words, for every different Number
, I would like to create pairs of observations for all the combinations of countries.
The "head" of the final dataset should look something like this:
final <- data.frame(Number = c("375_1", "375_1", "375_1", "375_1", "375_1", "375_1", "375_1","375_1", "375_1", "375_1", "375_1","375_1"),
year = c(1973, 1973, 1973, 1973, 1973, 1973, 1973, 1973,1973, 1973, 1973, 1973),
Country1 = c("AUT", "AUT", "AUT", "AUT", "AUT", "AUT", "AUT","PRT","PRT","PRT","PRT","PRT"),
Country2 = c("PRT", "CHE", "NOR", "SWE", "ISL", "DNK", "GBR","CHE","NOR","SWE", "ISL","DNK"),
stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
and continue like this for every country dyad within the group. I would like to find a clean and concise way to do so
Thank you very much in advance for your help
For future reference, I think that the solution is the following
final <- df %>% group_by(Number, year)%>% expand(Country1 = Country, Country2= Country) %>% filter(Country1!=Country2)
