Arguments

`x`	If a data.frame it will be used as the data source for the variables in the `...` parameter. If it is a single variable it will be the core value that want the statistics for. In the print this is equivalent to the output of this function.
`by`	The variable that you want to split into different columns
`hrzl_prop`	This is default FALSE and indicates that the proportions are to be interpreted in a vertical manner. If we want the data to be horizontal, i.e. the total should be shown and then how these differ in the different groups then set this to TRUE.
`continuous_fn`	The method to describe continuous variables. The default is `describeMean`.
`html`	If HTML compatible output should be used. If `FALSE` it outputs LaTeX formatting
`digits`	The number of decimals used
`digits.nonzero`	The number of decimals used for values that are close to zero
`numbers_first`	If the number should be given or if the percentage should be presented first. The second is encapsulated in parentheses ().
`useNA`	This indicates if missing should be added as a separate row below all other. See `table` for `useNA`-options. Note: defaults to ifany and not "no" as `table` does.
`useNA.digits`	The number of digits to use for the missing percentage, defaults to the overall `digits`.
`percentage_sign`	If you want to suppress the percentage sign you can set this variable to FALSE. You can also choose something else that the default % if you so wish by setting this variable.
`missing_value`	Value that is substituted for empty cells. Defaults to "-"
`names_of_missing`	Optional character vector containing the names of returned statistics, in case all returned values for a given `by` level are missing. Defaults to NULL
