latextable function

Description

A very useful function to create a LaTeX table from a matrix. Rounds numeric entries and also replaces small numbers with standard index form equivalents.

Usage

latextable(
  x,
  digits = 3,
  scientific = -3,
  colnames = NULL,
  rownames = NULL,
  caption = NULL,
  narep = " ",
  laststr = "",
  intable = TRUE,
  manualalign = NULL,
  file = "",
  ...
)

x	a matrix, or object that can be coerced to a matrix. x can include mixed character and numeric entries.
digits	see help file for format
scientific	see help file for format
colnames	optional column names set to NULL (default) to automatically use column names of x. NOTE! if rownames is not NULL present, colnames must include an entry for the rownames i.e. it should be a vector of length the number of columns of x plus 1.
rownames	optional row names set to NULL (default) to automatically use row names of x
caption	optional caption, not normally used
narep	string giving replacement for NA entries in the matrix
laststr	string to write at end, eg note the double backslash!!
