Alternative to expand.grid for data.frames

by

It’s been a while since this question was posted, but I recently came across it looking for just the thing in the title, namely, an expand.grid that works for data frames. The posted answers address the OP’s more specific question, so in case anyone is looking for a more general solution for data frames, here’s a slightly more general approach:

expand.grid.df <- function(...) Reduce(function(...) merge(..., by=NULL), list(...))

# For the example in the OP
expand.grid.df(df, data.frame(1:lengthTime))

# More generally
df1 <- data.frame(A=1:3, B=11:13)
df2 <- data.frame(C=51:52, D=c("Y", "N"))
df3 <- data.frame(E=c("+", "-"))
expand.grid.df(df1, df2, df3)
