In desctable: Produce Descriptive and Comparative Tables Easily

Desctable

Warning to existing users This version introduces a new API that should make the creation of tables more flexible. The old API is still present but in a deprecated mode. See the roadmap below, and the website for the new usage. Suggestions about this change are welcome !

Introduction

Desctable aims to be a simple and expressive interface to building statistical tables in R.

See desctable.github.io for usage ond documentation.

Installation

Install from CRAN (0.1.9) with

install.packages("desctable")

or install the development version (0.3) from github with

devtools::install_github("desctable/desctable")

Roadmap

0.3

This new version introduces a new internal representation as well as an entirely new API for desctable ! The original desctable function and usage remains until 1.0, but begins deprecation.

This new API is more flexible and more simple at the same time. Combine group_by, desc_table, desc_tests, and desc_output to create descriptive and comparative statistics tables and output them to various formats.

The internal representation is now a simple dataframe in the simple descriptive case, and a nested dataframe with list-columns for comparative tables, allowing easier manipulation by the user.

Next

• Add a desc_output for {gt}
• Implement a way to make tables for survival analysis.
• Implement a way to make tables for multivariate models.
• Allow univariate tests for simple tables
• add a column for totals in grouped tables
