#dataformatter R package to format data for meta-analysis

###dependencies V8

###contents wide2long - R wrapper for CINeMA's wideToLong function in js

wide2long(data,type)

• data is the dataset.
• type: "binary" or "continuous"

long2wide(data,fields)

• data is the dataset.
• fields: "binary" or "continuous" or a list of the column names starting with study id, i.e. c("study","treat","r","n")

###installation

install.packages("V8")
install_github("esm-ispm-unibe-ch/dataformatter")

###usage

library(dataformatter)
longData = readxl("./somedataset.xls")
wideData = long2wide(longData,c("id","t","r","n"))

in the above example we defined manually the fields' names, which is the same as

wideData = long2wide(longData,"binary")

see cinema.ispm.ch/#doc for the default field names.
