[R] Data reshaping with conditions

Hi Jim,

Thanks for your time. But somehow this code did not help me to achieve my
expected output.
Problems: 1) x, y are coming as logical rather than values as I mentioned
in my post
               2) The values that I get for Max A and Max B not correct
               3) It looks like a pretty big data, but I just need to
concatenate the values with a comma, the final output will be a character
variable.

Regards,
Sri
