Arguments

Builds a mapping from the custom column names of a given data.frame to the variable names used in the standard analysis model. If prompt_mapping is set to TRUE, the function prompts the mapping for each column of the data.frame. If prompt_mapping is set to FALSE, the mapping is built using the order of the columns of the given data.frame.
