In cosimameyer/overviewR: Easily Extracting Information About Your Data

overview_tab

Description

Provides an overview table for the time and scope conditions of a data set. If a data.table object is provided, the function uses data.table's syntax to perform the evaluation

Usage

overview_tab(
  dat,
  id,
  time = list(year = NULL, month = NULL, day = NULL),
  complex_date = FALSE
)

Arguments

dat	A data frame or data table object
id	Scope (e.g., country codes or individual IDs)
time	Time (e.g., time periods given by years, months, ...). There are three options to add a date variable: 1) Time can be a character vector containing **one** time variable, 2) a time variable following the YYYY-MM-DD format, or 3) or a list containing multiple time variables ('time = list(year = NULL, month = NULL, day = NULL)').
complex_date	Boolean argument identifying if there is a more complex (list-wise) date_time parameter (FALSE is the default)

Value

A data frame object that contains a summary of a sample that can later be converted to a 'LaTeX' output using overview_latex

Examples

# With version 1 (and also 2):

data(toydata)
output_table <- overview_tab(dat = toydata, id = ccode, time = year)

# With version 3:
overview_tab(dat = toydata, id = ccode, time = list(
  year = toydata$year,
  month = toydata$month, day = toydata$day
), complex_date = TRUE)
