create columns based on rows (kind of cross Tab)

Hi,

I'm trying to transform a table, to create some features (new columns) for a statistic model.

 

 

My initial dataset is like this:

Yeardif_yearuser_namefield1field30
20220bobaaammm
20220billbbbnnn
20220willcccooo
20211bobdddppp
20211billeeeqqq
20211willfffrrr
20202bobgggsss
20202billhhhttt
20202williiiuuu
20193bobjjjvvv
20193billkkkxxx
20193willlllzzz
,,,

 

 

And I wish to transform it into a dataset like this:

user_namefield1_diif_year_0…_diif_year_0field30_diif_year_0field1_diif_year_1…_diif_year_1field30_diif_year_1field1_diif_year_2…_diif_year_2field30_diif_year_2field1_diif_year_3…_diif_year_3field30_diif_year_3
bobaaammmdddpppgggsssjjjvvv
billbbbnnneeeqqqhhhtttkkkxxx
willcccooofffrrriiiuuulllzzz

 

The main challenge is the amount of fields (30+)

 

Any Help would be very much appreciate.

Best Regards!
