I am wanting to create a startime and endtime column from my current datetime column in R. My data has been grouped by ID.
Here is the data:
ID DATETIMEUTC
A 12/17/2019 9:46:04 PM
A 12/17/2019 9:46:05 PM
A 12/18/2019 2:34:56 AM
A 12/18/2019 2:34:58 AM
I am wanting this outcome:
ID StartTime EndTime
A 12/17/2019 9:46:04 PM 12/17/2019 9:46:05 PM
A 12/18/2019 2:34:56 AM 12/18/2019 2:34:58 AM
Here is the code that I am writing to try and achieve this:
library(dplyr)
df %>%
group_by(id) %>%
mutate(start=date, stop=lead(start, default=end[1]))
This command is not yielding the desired result. I am still researching this. Any suggestions is greatly appreciated!

We can create a new column with alternate values of c('StartTime', 'EndTime')
, group by ID
, create a unique row number for each group and spread the data in wide format.
library(dplyr)
df %>%
group_by(ID, col = rep(c('StartTime', 'EndTime'), length.out = n())) %>%
mutate(id = row_number()) %>%
tidyr::pivot_wider(names_from = col, values_from = DATETIMEUTC) %>%
ungroup() %>%
select(-id)
# A tibble: 2 x 3
# ID StartTime EndTime
# <fct> <fct> <fct>
#1 A 12/17/2019 9:46:04 PM 12/17/2019 9:46:05 PM
#2 A 12/18/2019 2:34:56 AM 12/18/2019 2:34:58 AM
data
df <- structure(list(ID = structure(c(1L, 1L, 1L, 1L), .Label = "A",
class = "factor"), DATETIMEUTC = structure(1:4, .Label = c("12/17/2019 9:46:04 PM",
"12/17/2019 9:46:05 PM", "12/18/2019 2:34:56 AM", "12/18/2019 2:34:58 AM"
), class = "factor")), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA, -4L))
