huxtable (version 5.4.0)

as_huxtable: Convert objects to huxtables

Description

as_huxtable or as_hux converts an object to a huxtable. Conversion methods exist for data frames, tables, ftables, matrices and (most) vectors. is_hux[table] tests if an object is a huxtable.

Usage

as_huxtable(x, ...)
as_hux(x, ...)
# S3 method for default
as_huxtable(
  x,
  add_colnames = getOption("huxtable.add_colnames", TRUE),
  add_rownames = FALSE,
  autoformat = getOption("huxtable.autoformat", TRUE),
  ...
)
is_huxtable(x)
is_hux(x)

Arguments

x

Object to convert.

...

Arguments passed on to huxtable().

add_colnames

If TRUE, add a first row of column names to the huxtable.

add_rownames

If TRUE or a character string, add a first column of row names to the huxtable. The string gives the name for the new column (or "rownames" for TRUE).

autoformat

If TRUE, automatically format columns by type. See below.

Value

An object of class "huxtable".

Details

For table objects, add_colnames and add_rownames are TRUE by default. For matrix objects, they are FALSE. Other classes use options("huxtable.add_colnames"), which is TRUE by default; add_rownames is FALSE.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
dfr <- data.frame(
        a = 1:5,
        b = letters[1:5],
        stringsAsFactors = FALSE
      )
as_huxtable(dfr)
mx <- matrix(letters[1:12], 4, 3)
as_huxtable(mx, add_colnames = FALSE)
library(stats)
tbl <- table(
        Wool    = warpbreaks$wool,
        Tension = warpbreaks$tension
      )
as_huxtable(tbl) # adds row and column names by default

# adding rownames:
as_hux(mtcars[1:3,], add_colnames = TRUE,
      add_rownames = "Car")

# }
