as_equation: Equation chunk

In flextable: Functions for Tabular Reporting

Equation chunk

Description

This function is used to insert equations into flextable.

It is used to add it to the content of a cell of the flextable with the functions compose(), append_chunks() or prepend_chunks().

To use this function, package 'equatags' is required; also equatags::mathjax_install() must be executed only once to install necessary dependencies.

Usage

as_equation(x, width = 1, height = 0.2, unit = "in", props = NULL)

Arguments

x	values containing the 'MathJax' equations
width, height	size of the resulting equation
unit	unit for width and height, one of "in", "cm", "mm".
props	an fp_text_default() or officer::fp_text() object to be used to format the text. If not specified, it will be the default value corresponding to the cell.

Examples

library(flextable)
if (require("equatags")) {
  eqs <- c(
    "(ax^2 + bx + c = 0)",
    "a \\ne 0",
    "x = {-b \\pm \\sqrt{b^2-4ac} \\over 2a}"
  )
  df <- data.frame(formula = eqs)
  df


  ft <- flextable(df)
  ft <- compose(
    x = ft, j = "formula",
    value = as_paragraph(as_equation(formula, width = 2, height = .5))
  )
  ft <- align(ft, align = "center", part = "all")
  ft <- width(ft, width = 2)
  ft
}
