## S4 method for signature 'PreDataTableLayouts'

## S4 method for signature 'ManualSplit'
vars_in_layout(lyt)

Arguments

lyt

(PreDataTableLayouts)
the layout (or a component thereof).

Details

This will walk the layout declaration and return a vector of the names of the unique variables that are used in any of the following ways:

  • Variable being split on (directly or via cuts)

  • Element of a Multi-variable column split

  • Content variable

  • Value-label variable

Value

A character vector containing the unique variables explicitly used in the layout (see the notes below).

Note

  • This function will not detect dependencies implicit in analysis or summary functions which accept x or df and then rely on the existence of particular variables not being split on/analyzed.

  • The order these variable names appear within the return vector is undefined and should not be relied upon.

Examples

lyt <- basic_table() %>%
  split_cols_by("ARM") %>%
  split_cols_by("SEX") %>%
  summarize_row_groups(label_fstr = "Overall (N)") %>%
  split_rows_by("RACE",
    split_label = "Ethnicity", labels_var = "ethn_lab",
    split_fun = drop_split_levels
  ) %>%
  summarize_row_groups("RACE", label_fstr = "%s (n)") %>%
  analyze("AGE", var_labels = "Age", afun = mean, format = "xx.xx")
