to.long: Functions to convert between long and wide representations of data
Description
These functions are merely wrappers for reshape.
Given the complicated syntax of reshape and the particularly simple
structure of this problem, the functions facilitate the conversion
enormously.
The variables representing measurements by different methods. Either a character vector of names, or a numerical vector with the number of the variables in the dataframe.
Value
A data frame with the reshaped data
Details
If data represents method comparisons with exchangeable replicates within method, the transformation to wide format does not necessarily make sense.
