stat	A number, supplied as a numeric or character value.
digit	How many significance digits? Default = 3 Passed to formattable with options format = "f" and digits = digit.
not_range	Should full p values be returned instead of significance ranges? Default is TRUE. FALSE returns numbers with greater than/ less than indicators and no leading zeros. See P values.
rmd_format	Should p value be return with a Latex/rMarkdown-friendly label and equal sign prepended (e.g., "\\textitp $=$ .012"). Default is TRUE.

P values

For p values less than .001, APA recommends using p < .001. Otherwise, full p values should be used, rounded to two or three decimal places, and without a leading zero (e.g., p = .003) when reporting p values in text, or as values in a range (for tables, etc.; e.g., p < .05). See snip for details about leading and trailing zeros.

# lapply(runif(n = 100, min = 0.00003, max = .99), APA_p, rmd_format = TRUE)
