[R] importing multiple file form folder

[Rui Barradas]

Hello,

Try the following example.



#install.packages("reshape2")

library(reshape2)

d <- data.frame(D=Sys.Date()+1:5, Temp1=1:5, Temp2=6:10, Temp3=11:15)
d
dm <- melt(d, id=("D"))
dm


If this seems familiar, then in your it should be id=c("Length", "Date") 
if "Date" already is a data.frame column.

Hope this helps,

Rui Barradas
