问题
I am trying to reshape my data to long instead of wide format using the same code provided earlier link , however it doesn't work even after several trials to modify names_pattern = "(.*)_(pre|post.*)",
My data sample is
data1<-read.table(text="
Serial_ID pre_EDV pre_ESV pre_LVEF post_EDV post_ESV post_LVEF
1 76.2 32.9 56.8 86.3 36.6 57.6
2 65.4 35.9 45.1 60.1 26.1 56.7
3 64.4 35.1 45.5 72.5 41.1 43.3
4 50 13.9 72.1 46.4 18.4 60.4
5 89.6 32 64.3 70.9 19.3 72.8
6 62 20.6 66.7 55.9 17.8 68.2
7 91.2 37.7 58.6 61.9 23.8 61.6
8 62 24 61.3 69.3 34.9 49.6
9 104.1 22.7 78.8 38.6 11.5 70.1
10 90.6 31.2 65.6 48 16.1 66.4", sep="", header=T)
I want to reshape my data to
- put identical column headings below each other eg post_EDV below pre_EDV
- Create new column Pre vs. post
- Fix column heading (remove "pre_" and "post_" to be "EDV" only (as shown in the screenshot below)).
This is the used code:
library(dplyr);library(tidyr);library(stringr)
out <- data %>% pivot_longer(cols = -Serial_ID,
names_to = c(".value", "prevspost"),
names_pattern = "(.*)_(pre|post.*)",
names_sep="_") #%>% as.data.frame
Also I tried names_prefix = c("pre_","post_") instead of names_pattern = "(.*)_(pre|post.*)", but it doesn't work.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Edit I recommend using @Dave2e's superior approach.
The reason your attempt didn't work is because the pattern has to match in order. You could try this:
library(tidyr)
library(dplyr)
data1 %>% pivot_longer(cols = -Serial_ID,
names_to = c("prevspost",".value"),
names_pattern = "(pre|post)_(\\w+)") %>%
dplyr::arrange(desc(prevspost),Serial_ID)

Your initial approach very close, it needed some simplification. Use only "names_sep" or "names_pattern"
library(tidyr)
library(dplyr)
data1 %>% pivot_longer(cols = -Serial_ID,
names_to = c("Pre vs. post", '.value'),
names_sep="_")
# A tibble: 20 x 5
Serial_ID `Pre vs. post` EDV ESV LVEF

try this:
library(dplyr);library(tidyr);library(stringr)
out <- data1 %>% pivot_longer(-Serial_ID,
names_to = c("measurement", "names"),
values_to = "values",
names_sep = "_")
out
# # A tibble: 60 x 4
# Serial_ID measurement names values
# <int> <chr> <chr> <dbl>
# 1 1 pre EDV 76.2
# 2 1 pre ESV 32.9
# 3 1 pre LVEF 56.8
# 4 1 post EDV 86.3
# 5 1 post ESV 36.6
# 6 1 post LVEF 57.6
# 7 2 pre EDV 65.4
# 8 2 pre ESV 35.9
# 9 2 pre LVEF 45.1
# 10 2 post EDV 60.1
# # ... with 50 more rows
Your code snipped passed the object "data" instead of "data1" into the pipe which produced an error:
"Error: No tidyselect variables were registered".
