Dear William and Ben,

Thank you for your replies and elegant solutions. I am having trouble with
the fact that two of the previous locations do not appear in current
locations (that is no one moved to OKC and Dallas from other cities), so
these two cities are not being included in the output.

I have provided a better sample of the data and the ideal output (wide form
- a 10x10 bilateral matrix) but haven't been able to do this. Would it be
easier if I create variable for each ID - it would be equal to 1 if the
person moved? I am a bit lost - thank you again!

### data
structure(list(ID = 1:12, previous_location. = structure(c(3L,
9L, 8L, 10L, 2L, 5L, 1L, 7L, 4L, 6L, 10L, 5L), .Label = c("Atlanta",
"Austin", "Boston", "Cambridge", "Dallas", "Durham", "Lynn",
"New Orleans", "New York", "OKC"), class = "factor"), current_location. =
structure(c(8L,
3L, 3L, 8L, 4L, 1L, 4L, 5L, 6L, 4L, 7L, 2L), .Label = c("Atlanta",
"Austin", "Boston", "Cambridge", "Durham", "Lynn", "New Orleans",
"New York"), class = "factor")), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA,
-12L))

### ideal output
structure(list(previous_location. = structure(c(3L, 9L, 8L, 10L,
2L, 5L, 1L, 7L, 4L, 6L), .Label = c("Atlanta", "Austin", "Boston",
"Cambridge", "Dallas", "Durham", "Lynn", "New Orleans", "New York",
"OKC"), class = "factor"), Boston = c(0L, 1L, 1L, 0L, 0L, 0L,
0L, 0L, 0L, 0L), New.York = c(1L, 0L, 0L, 1L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L,
0L, 0L), New.Orleans = c(0L, 0L, 0L, 1L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L,
0L), OKC = c(0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L), Austin = c(0L,
0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 1L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L), Dallas = c(0L, 0L, 0L, 0L,
0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L), Atlanta = c(0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 1L,
0L, 0L, 0L, 0L), Lynn = c(0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 1L,
0L), Cambridge = c(0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 1L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 1L), Durham = c(0L,
0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 1L, 0L, 0L)), class = "data.frame", row.names =
c(NA,
-10L))

Sincerely,

Milu
