continuous_config: Continuous Variable Configuration for Theseus Plot

In TheseusPlot: Visualizing Decomposition of Differences in Rate Metrics

Continuous Variable Configuration for Theseus Plot

Description

The continuous_config() function creates a configuration object for handling continuous variables in Theseus plots. It controls how continuous data is binned into discrete categories for contribution calculations and visualization.

Usage

continuous_config(
  n = 10L,
  pretty = TRUE,
  split = c("count", "width", "rate"),
  breaks = NULL
)

Arguments

n	integer. Number of bins to create for a continuous variable.
pretty	logical. If TRUE, use pretty breaks for bin edges.
split	string. Method for binning continuous variables. Options are: "count" divide the variable into bins with roughly equal number of observations. "width" divide the range of the variable into equal-width bins. "rate" divide based on differences in outcome rates between bins.
breaks	numeric vector specifying custom break points.

Value

A list containing binning parameters (n, pretty, split, breaks) to be used in plotting or contribution calculations for continuous variables.

Examples

library(TheseusPlot)
continuous_config(n = 5, pretty = FALSE, split = "rate")
