meantables

The goal of meantables is to quickly make tables of descriptive statistics (i.e., counts, means, confidence intervals) for continuous variables. This package is designed to work in a Tidyverse pipeline, and consideration has been given to get results from R to ‘Microsoft Word’ ® with minimal pain.

Installation

You can install the released version of meantables from CRAN with:

install.packages("meantables")

And the development version from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("brad-cannell/meantables")

#> The following objects are masked from 'package:base':
#> 
#>     intersect, setdiff, setequal, union
library(meantables)

data("mtcars")

Overall mean table with defaults

mtcars %>% 
  mean_table(mpg)
#> # A tibble: 1 x 8
#>   response_var     n  mean   sem   lcl   ucl   min   max
#>   <chr>        <int> <dbl> <dbl> <dbl> <dbl> <dbl> <dbl>
#> 1 mpg             32  20.1  1.07  17.9  22.3  10.4  33.9

Grouped means table with defaults

mtcars %>% 
  group_by(cyl) %>% 
  mean_table(mpg)
