This is a package with some simple functions for reporting summary statistics and associated measures of variability in documents created with R. For example, reporting a mean and standard deviation of a data vector in the form "mean (s.d.)" requires composing paste statements in R, but can more cleanly be done with mean_sd(x).
devtools::install_github("carter-allen/helpR")
A typical use for these functions are in dplyr summary chains. For example,
library(dplyr)
mtcars %>%
group_by(cyl) %>%
summarize(meansd = mean_sd(mpg))
# A tibble: 3 x 2
cyl meansd
<dbl> <chr>
1 4 26.66 (4.51)
2 6 19.74 (1.45)
3 8 15.1 (2.56)
