Pivot summary

Transpose a tibble of summary statistics in tidy format. Convenient function for transposing the output of dplyr”s group_by and summarize operation.

0 groups

Transpose a 1 row numerical summary:

wide format

iris %>% 
  summarize(across(where(is.numeric), mean), .groups = "drop") -> sumr0

sumr0
#>   Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width
#> 1     5.843333    3.057333        3.758    1.199333

long format


sumr0 %>% 
  pivot_summary()
#> # A tibble: 4 × 2
#>   column          V1
#>   <chr>        <dbl>
#> 1 Sepal.Length  5.84
#> 2 Sepal.Width   3.06
#> 3 Petal.Length  3.76
#> 4 Petal.Width   1.20

1 group

A grouped summary can be transposed by providing the name of the group column.

wide format

iris %>% 
  group_by(Species) %>% 
  summarize(across(where(is.numeric), mean), .groups = "drop") -> sumr1

sumr1
#> # A tibble: 3 × 5
#>   Species    Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width

#> 3 virginica          6.59        2.97         5.55       2.03

long format


sumr1 %>% 
  pivot_summary(Species)
#> # A tibble: 4 × 4

#> 4 Petal.Width   0.246       1.33      2.03

2 groups

Supports transposing numerical summaries with multiple groups using tidyselect.

long format


iris %>%
  mutate(Species1 = sample(Species)) %>%
  group_by(Species, Species1) %>% 
  summarize(across(where(is.numeric), mean), .groups = "drop") -> sumr2
 
sumr2

#> 9 virginica  virginica          6.42        2.87         5.44       2.02

Group names are concatenated and pivoted.
