Render continuous values for table output.

Called from cttab by default to render continuous (i.e. numeric) values for displaying in the table.

Usage

render_numeric(x, what = "Median [Min, Max]", ...)

Arguments

x

A numeric vector.

what

A character or vector what will be reported for numeric variables, default is median and min, max. See num_stat for the supported statistics. The provided name will be used as statistic names (printed in the table), and the values is the statistics that will be reported. If you want to have a fancy name, use a named vector with names as the statistics will be printed and values are the statistics. For example, c("Geo. Mean (Geo. CV%)" = "GMean (GCV)", "Median [IQR]" = "Median [Q1, Q3]"). In the latter case, the user visible statistics will be called "Median [IQR]" and this is the name printed. But the underlying summarised statistics are median, Q1 and Q3. Separate statistics with comma or a space or any non-letters.

...

Further arguments, passed to num_stat.

Value

A character vector. Each element is to be displayed in a separate cell in the table. The names of the vector are the labels to use in the table.

Details

This function was used by link{cttab} to render numeric variables. It essentially uses the values returned by num_stat and put values to a vector.

Examples

x <- exp(rnorm(100, 1, 1))
render_numeric(x)
#>           Valid Obs.            Mean (SD)    Median [Min, Max] 
#>                "100"        "4.36 (5.39)" "2.73 [0.235, 38.4]"
