比较聚集 (tidyr) 和融化 (reshape2)

我喜欢reshape2套餐，因为它让生活变得如此轻松.通常情况下，Hadley在之前的软件包中进行了改进，使代码更精简、运行速度更快.我想我会给tidyr一个旋转，从我读到的我认为gather和reshape2中的melt非常相似.但在阅读了文档之后，我无法让gather人完成melt人所做的相同任务.

Data View

以下是数据视图(本文末尾以dput种形式显示的实际数据):

  teacher yr1.baseline     pd yr1.lesson1 yr1.lesson2 yr2.lesson1 yr2.lesson2 yr2.lesson3
1       3      1/13/09 2/5/09      3/6/09     4/27/09     10/7/09    11/18/09      3/4/10
2       7      1/15/09 2/5/09      3/3/09      5/5/09    10/16/09    11/18/09      3/4/10
3       8      1/27/09 2/5/09      3/3/09     4/27/09     10/7/09    11/18/09      3/5/10

Code

这是melt码，我try 了gather码.我怎样才能让gather和melt做同样的事情？

library(reshape2); library(dplyr); library(tidyr)

dat %>% 
   melt(id=c("teacher", "pd"), value.name="date") 

dat %>% 
   gather(key=c(teacher, pd), value=date, -c(teacher, pd)) 

Desired Output

   teacher     pd     variable     date
1        3 2/5/09 yr1.baseline  1/13/09
2        7 2/5/09 yr1.baseline  1/15/09
3        8 2/5/09 yr1.baseline  1/27/09
4        3 2/5/09  yr1.lesson1   3/6/09
5        7 2/5/09  yr1.lesson1   3/3/09
6        8 2/5/09  yr1.lesson1   3/3/09
7        3 2/5/09  yr1.lesson2  4/27/09
8        7 2/5/09  yr1.lesson2   5/5/09
9        8 2/5/09  yr1.lesson2  4/27/09
10       3 2/5/09  yr2.lesson1  10/7/09
11       7 2/5/09  yr2.lesson1 10/16/09
12       8 2/5/09  yr2.lesson1  10/7/09
13       3 2/5/09  yr2.lesson2 11/18/09
14       7 2/5/09  yr2.lesson2 11/18/09
15       8 2/5/09  yr2.lesson2 11/18/09
16       3 2/5/09  yr2.lesson3   3/4/10
17       7 2/5/09  yr2.lesson3   3/4/10
18       8 2/5/09  yr2.lesson3   3/5/10
