Add stars to an appropriately rounded p value to indicate significance

Description

starSig checks whether the p value input is below a certain threshold, rounds to the determined number of sig figs, and marks it with an asterisk or asterisks as appropriate to its significance level.

Usage

starSig(pval, sig = 1, starlevels = c(0.001, 0.01, 0.05))

Arguments

pval	A numeric vector of p values
sig	The number of significant digits to include
starlevels	A vector of the three values to use for significance marked with ***, **, or * in that order. Output: character vector of rounded numbers with asterisks, e.g., c("0.03*", "0.0002**", "0.9", "0.00008***")

Value

Returns a character string

Examples

starSig(0.0235)
starSig(0.0235, 2)
starSig(0.5)
starSig(0.0004235)
starSig(c(0.0003, 0.04, 0.09))
# Output will be: "0.0003***" "0.04*" "0.09"
starSig(c( 0.0003, 0.04, 0.09), starlevels = c(0.01, 0.05, 0.1))
# Output will be: "0.0003***" "0.04**" "0.09*"
