Columns and rows switcheroo

I believe this is a simple problem. I havent been able to solve it so far. 

 

My gut feeling says "solve it with the transform tools". Just my luck that I am pretty bad using most of the tools in that section. If you have some material that you can point a beginner+ to, id appreciate it.

 

The problem.

My data: capture 5 attached

My desired data: capture 6 attached

 

I'm sure that there are multiple ways of solving this, so, bring it on ;-)

 

Thanks!

Hey @franc1s,

 

I know that problem, it is quite confusing sometimes.

Hey @franc1s 

You gotta transpose then Cross-tab swapping the rows and headers

I'd recommend the interactive lesson on transforming data 
https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Interactive-Lessons/Changing-Data-Layouts/ta-p/82876

Also look at weekly challenges to practise as well!
