Description of the categories of one factor by categorical variables and/or by quantitative variables
catdes(donnee,num.var,proba = 0.05, row.w = NULL)a data frame made up of at least one categorical variables and a set of quantitative variables and/or categorical variables
the indice of the variable to characterized
the significance threshold considered to characterized the category (by default 0.05)
a vector of integers corresponding to an optional row weights (by default, a vector of 1 for uniform row weights)
Returns a list including:
The categorical variables which characterized the factor are listed in ascending order (from the one which characterized the most
the factor to the one which significantly characterized with the proba proba
description of each category of the num.var by each category of all the categorical variables
the global description of the num.var variable by the quantitative variables with the square correlation coefficient and the p-value of the F-test in a one-way analysis of variance (assuming the hypothesis of homoscedsticity)
the description of each category of the num.var variable by the quantitative variables.
