format.df: Format a Data Frame or Matrix for LaTeX or HTML

Description

format.df does appropriate rounding and decimal alignment, and outputs a character matrix containing the formatted data. If x is a data.frame, then do each component separately. If x is a matrix, but not a data.frame, make it a data.frame with individual components for the columns. If a component x$x is a matrix, then do all columns the same.

Usage

format.df(x, digits, dec=NULL, rdec=NULL, cdec=NULL,
          numeric.dollar=!dcolumn, na.blank=FALSE, na.dot=FALSE,
          blank.dot=FALSE, col.just=NULL, cdot=FALSE,
          dcolumn=FALSE, matrix.sep=' ', scientific=c(-4,4),
          math.row.names=FALSE, already.math.row.names=FALSE,
          math.col.names=FALSE, already.math.col.names=FALSE,
          double.slash=FALSE, format.Date="%m/%d/%Y",
          format.POSIXt="%m/%d/%Y %H:%M:%OS", ...)

Value

a character matrix with character images of properly rounded x. Matrix components of input x are now just sets of columns of character matrix. Object attribute"col.just" repeats the value of the argument col.just when provided, otherwise, it includes the recommended justification for columns of output. See the discussion of the argument col.just. The default justification is l for characters and factors,

r for numeric. When dcolumn==TRUE, numerics will have . as the justification character.
