Look at the 'reshape' package, with functions melt() and cast()

(I'm not sure how the remark about the virtues of SAS is relevant, but if you really want SAS, I presume you know where to find it.)

Subject: [R]  how to transpose a dataframe

I want to transpose a dataframe like
      level   2006   2007   2008
        A       ....
        B      .....
        C        ........
into
      level    year
        A      2006
        A      2007
        A      2008
        B      2006
        B      2007
           ......
There is a procedure in SAS can do this, is there any function in R can do
this?
