Convert Numeric to Factor, with custom formatting

Description

This is an enhanced version of base::cut() that allows a custom formatting to be applied to the values.

Usage

cut_format(
  x,
  breaks,
  include.lowest = FALSE,
  right = TRUE,
  ordered_result = FALSE,
  ...,
  format_fun = format,
  sep = ", ",
  paren = c("(", "[", ")", "]")
)

Arguments

x

a numeric vector which is to be converted to a factor by cutting.

breaks

⁠[numeric]⁠
A vector of two or more unique cut points

include.lowest

logical, indicating if an ‘x[i]’ equal to the lowest (or highest, for right = FALSE) ‘breaks’ value should be included.

right

logical, indicating if the intervals should be closed on the right (and open on the left) or vice versa.

ordered_result

logical: should the result be an ordered factor?

...

Passed to cut()

format_fun

⁠[function(x): character]⁠
A vectorized function that performs the desired formatting. Default: base::format()

sep

⁠[character(1)]⁠
The separator between lower and upper end of the interval. Default: ", "
