Pivoting Wide Data with Tidyr's pivot_wider Function: A Step-by-Step Guide
You can use the pivot_wider function from the tidyr package to achieve this.
Here’s an example of how you can do it:
library(tidyr) exfibi500 <- exfibi500 %>% pivot_wider(names_from = Full_name, values_from = counts500, values_fn = sum, values_fill = 0) This will create a new data frame where the species are in separate columns and the count is summed for each row.
Note: The values_fill argument is used to fill missing values with zeros.
