spicy (version 0.11.0)

as.data.frame.spicy_continuous_table: Coerce a spicy_continuous_table to a plain data frame or tibble

Description

These S3 methods strip the "spicy_continuous_table" / "spicy_table" classes and the rendering-only attributes (digits, decimal_mark, ci_level, align, p_digits, ...) from an object returned by table_continuous() so the underlying long-format data can be manipulated with downstream tools (dplyr, tidyr, etc.) under the standard data.frame / tbl_df contract. The single attribute "group_var" is preserved as a lightweight provenance marker; all other spicy attributes are dropped. The original x is unaffected, and print(x) continues to render the formatted ASCII table.

Usage

# S3 method for spicy_continuous_table
as.data.frame(x, row.names = NULL, optional = FALSE, ...)

# S3 method for spicy_continuous_table as_tibble(x, ...)

Value

A plain data.frame (or tbl_df) with one row per (variable x group) (or one row per variable when by is not used).

Arguments

x

A spicy_continuous_table returned by table_continuous().

row.names, optional

Standard base::as.data.frame() arguments. Currently ignored: the long format already carries integer row names and explicit columns.

...

Further arguments passed to tibble::as_tibble() (for the tibble method) or ignored (for the as.data.frame() method).

Details

The returned data is identical to what output = "long" (or output = "data.frame") returns directly from table_continuous(); use whichever entry point reads better in your pipeline.
