Combining flattened tables. — ftable-matrix • memisc

With the method functions described here, flattened (contingency) tables can be combined into more complex objects, of class "ftable_matrix". For objects of these class format and print methods are provided

Usage

# S3 method for class 'ftable'
cbind(..., deparse.level=1)

# S3 method for class 'ftable'
rbind(..., deparse.level=1)

# S3 method for class 'ftable_matrix'
cbind(..., deparse.level=1)

# S3 method for class 'ftable_matrix'
rbind(..., deparse.level=1)

# S3 method for class 'ftable_matrix'
format(x,quote=TRUE,digits=0,format="f",...)

# S3 method for class 'ftable_matrix'
Write(x,
                            file = "",
                            quote = TRUE,
                            append = FALSE,
                            digits = 0,
                            ...)
                            
# S3 method for class 'ftable_matrix'
print(x,quote=FALSE,...)

Arguments

...: for cbind and rbind methods, two or more objects of class "ftable" or "ftable_matrix"; for the other methods: further arguments, ignored.
deparse.level: ignored, retained for compatibility reasons only.
x: an object used to select a method.
quote: logical, indicating whether or not strings should be printed with surrounding quotes.
digits: numeric or integer, number of significant digits to be shown.
format: a format string as in formatC
file: character string, containing a file path.
append: logical, should the output appended to the file?

Value

cbind and rbind, when used with "ftable" or "ftable_matrix" objects, return objects of class "ftable_matrix".

ft1 <- ftable(Sex~Survived,Titanic)
ft2 <- ftable(Age+Class~Survived,Titanic)
ft3 <- ftable(Survived~Class,Titanic)

ft5 <- ftable(Survived~Sex,Titanic)

tab10 <- xtabs(Freq~Survived,Titanic)
