Freekfoofactors

Contains two functions for working with factors.

Installation

``` {r installation, eval = F} devtools::install_github("FreekManders/foofactors", build_vignettes = TRUE)

## Demo

```r
library(Freekfoofactors)
a <- factor(c("character", "hits", "your", "eyeballs"))
b <- factor(c("but", "integer", "where it", "counts"))

Simply catenating two factors leads to a result that most don't expect.

c(a, b)

The fbind() function glues two factors together and returns factor.

fbind(a, b)

Often we want a table of frequencies for the levels of a factor. The base table() function returns an object of class table, which can be inconvenient for downstream work.

set.seed(1234)
x <- factor(sample(letters[1:5], size = 100, replace = TRUE))
table(x)

The fcount() function returns a frequency table as a tibble with a column of factor levels and another of frequencies:

fcount(x)
