In cat2cat: Handling an Inconsistently Coded Categorical Variable in a Longitudinal Dataset

#' Summary plots for cat2cat results
#' @description This function help to understand properties of cat2cat results.
#' It is recommended to run it before further processing, like next iterations.
#' @param data `data.frame` - one of the data.frames returned by
#' the `cat2cat` function.
#' @param weis `character(1)` - name of a certain wei_*_c2c column,
#' added by cat2cat function. Default `wei_freq_c2c`.
#' @param type `character(1)` - one of 3 types `"both"`, `"hist"`, `"bar"`.
#' @return base plot graphics
#' @importFrom graphics hist barplot par
#' @importFrom utils head
#' @note It will work only for data.frame produced by cat2cat function.
#' @export
#' @examples
