matrix_form.tabular: Transform tabular object to matrices printable by formatters...

In tables: Formula-Driven Table Generation

Transform tabular object to matrices printable by formatters package

Description

The formatters package provides methods for displaying and breaking up tables into smaller pieces.

Usage

matrix_form.tabular(df)

Arguments

df	A tabular object.

Details

The formatters package provides a matrix_form generic function for S4 objects. "tabular" objects are S3 objects, so it won't dispatch to this function, which must be fully specified when called.

Examples

if (requireNamespace("formatters")) {
  Sex <- factor(sample(c("Male", "Female"), 100, replace = TRUE))
  Status <- factor(sample(c("low", "medium", "high"), 100, replace = TRUE))

  fmt <- function(x) {
  s <- format(x, digits=2)

  s[even] <- sprintf("(%s)", s[even])
  s
}
  tab <- tabular( Justify(c)*Heading()*z*Sex*Heading(Statistic)*Format(fmt())*(mean+sd)
