Hi - I'm relatively new to R and hoping it can help me with a particularly onerous data cleanup project I'm working on. Basically I have a data table with course names and course enrollments listed separately for 5 years, each year having its own individual listing for the both the course names and the number of enrollments in that course for that unique year. I'd like the end result to be just one column of course names with each years' enrollments listed as the subsequent columns after that. My problem is that the course names will not always match. They may have some similar words or phrases in their names, but there are no matching IDs or easy ways to merge the data that I can think of. Does anyone know of a way R could help me with this?
