⚠️There's a newer version (0.6.3) of this package. Take me there.

Overview

A package that includes functions that I find useful for teaching statistics as well as actually practicing the art. They typically are not “new” methods but rather wrappers around either base R or other packages and concepts I’m trying to master. Currently contains:

  • Plot2WayANOVA which as the name implies conducts a 2 way ANOVA and plots the results using ggplot2
  • PlotXTabs which as the name implies plots cross tabulated variables using ggplot2
  • neweta which is a helper function that appends the results of a Type II eta squared calculation onto a classic ANOVA table
  • Mode which finds the modal value in a vector of data
  • SeeDist which wraps around ggplot2 to provide visualizations of univariate data.
  • OurConf is a simulation function that helps you learn about confidence intervals

Installation

# Install from CRAN
install.packages("CGPfunctions")

# Or the development version from GitHub
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("ibecav/CGPfunctions")

Usage

library(CGPfunctions) will load the package which contains 4 functions:

SeeDist will give you some plots of the distribution of a variable using ggplot2

Mode is a helper function that simply returns one or more modal values

neweta is a helper function which returns a tibble containing AOV output similar to summary(aov(MyAOV)) but with eta squared computed and appended as an additional column

The Plot2WayANOVA function conducts a classic analysis using existing R functions and packages in a sane and defensible manner not necessarily in the one and only manner.

OurConf is a simulation function that helps you learn about confidence intervals

Credits

Many thanks to Dani Navarro and the book > (Learning Statistics with R) whose etaSquared function was the genesis of neweta.

  • broom, for turning models into tidy data
  • ggplot2, for data visualisation.
  • dplyr, for data manipulation.
  • tidyr, for data tidying.
  • readr, for data import.
  • purrr, for functional programming.
