base_table: Create a Summary Table with Grouping and Custom Formatting

Description

This function generates a summary table from a data frame with specified grouping and variable types. It uses the gtsummary package to create descriptive statistics for categorical and continuous variables, with options for customizing the rounding and labels.

Usage

base_table(
  data1,
  show_missing_data,
  by_group = FALSE,
  var_group,
  quali = NULL,
  quanti = NULL,
  digits = list(mean_sd = 1, median_q1_q3_min_max = 1, pct = 1)
)

Value

A gtsummary table summarizing the specified variables, grouped by var_group if provided, with customizable statistics and rounding options.

Arguments

data1

A data frame containing the data to summarize.
