formatSummarizedFactors function

Prints out the contents of an object created by summarizeFactors in the style of base::summary

An object with class "summarizedFactors" is the input. Such an object should be created with the function rockchalk::summarizeFactors. Each element in that list is then organized for printing in a tabular summary. This should look almost like R's own summary function, except for the additional information that these factor summaries include.

formatSummarizedFactors(x, ...)

Arguments

• x: A summarizedFactors object produced by summarizeFactors
• ...: optional arguments. Only value currently used is digits, which defaults to 2.

Returns

A table of formatted output

Examples

dat <- data.frame(xcat1 = gl(10, 3), xcat2 = gl(5, 6))
summarizeFactors(dat, maxLevels = 8)
formatSummarizedFactors(summarizeFactors(dat))
