What’s inside

R currently supports a wide variety of tools for the analysis of categorical data. However, many functions are spread across a variety of packages with differing syntax and poor compatibility with each another.

To address this issue, catfun includes wrapper functions around existing functions for tests of proportions, power analyses for proportions, and measures of association into one structure.

For example, prop_test() combines the base R functions binom.test(), prop.test() and BinomCI() from the DescTools package into one. The 3 mentioned functions all perform important aspects of testing for differences among proportions but are now used to create one output with all relevant information within one spot.
