Description

Compute custom statistics specified by the user.

Usage

getStatisticsSummaryStatisticsTable(
  summaryTable,
  statsVarInit,
  var = NULL,
  stats = NULL,
  statsVarBy = NULL
)

Arguments

summaryTable

Summary table.

statsVarInit

Character vector with initial statistics names.

var

Character vector with variable(s) of data, to compute statistics on.
If NULL (by default), counts by row/column variable(s) are computed.
To also return counts of the rowVar in case other var are specified, you can include: 'all' in the var.
Missing values, if present, are filtered (also for the report of number of subjects/records).

stats

(Optionally) named list of expression or call object of summary statistics of interest. The names are reported in the header. The following variables are recognized, if the table is a:

  • 'summaryTable':

    • 'statN': number of subjects

    • 'statMean': mean of var

    • 'statSD': standard deviation of var

    • 'statSE': standard error of var

    • 'statMedian': median of var

    • 'statMin': minimum of var

    • 'statMax': maximum of var

    • 'statPerc': percentage of subjects

    • 'statm': number of records

  • 'countTable':

    • 'statN': number of subjects

    • 'statPercN': percentage of subjects

    • 'statm': number of records

If stats if of length 1, the name of the summary statistic is not included in the table. The statistics can be specified for each var (if multiple), by naming each element of the list: list(varName1 = list(...), varName2 = list()) and/or for each element in: statsVarBy, by naming each sublist.

statsVarBy

Character vector with colnames of data by which the statistics should be computed. In this case, stats (nested list or not) should be additionally nested to specify the statistics for each element in statsVarBy.

Value

List with two elements:

  • 'summaryTable': summary table updated with statistics specified in stats

  • 'statsVar': Character vector with statistics names
