quantvar: Weighted quantiles for multiple variables.

In faouser1/FAO: Official FAO Package

Description

quantvar produces weighted quantiles corresponding to a specified variable and frequency. View examples for details.

Usage

quantvar(df, freq = 10)

Arguments

df	A dataframe.
freq	A numeric value that specifies quantile frequency. Default is 10, i.e. decile.

Details

First column of dataframe must be weight variable, second must be sorting variable. Function provides best approximation on dataframes with greater than 10,000 observations.

Value

A dataframe with summary statistics for each quantile frequency.

Examples

df <- data.frame(weights = rnorm(1000,1000,50), income = rnorm(1000,35000,5000))
quantvar(df,freq=5)
