Produces a latex table

Description

Produces a latex table

Usage

xTab(x, label = NULL, caption.top = NULL, caption.bottom = NULL,
  position = getOption("kLat.xTab.position", "ht"),
  booktabs = .op("kLat.xTab.booktabs", "kLat.booktabs", FALSE),
  toprule = .book("kLat.toprule", booktabs, "\\toprule", "\\hline"),
  bottomrule = .book("kLat.botrule", booktabs, "\\bottomrule", "\\hline"),
  midrule = .book("kLat.midrule", booktabs, "\\midrule", "\\hline"),
  align = .op("kLat.xTab.align", "kLat.align", "center"),
  envir = getOption("kLat.xTab.envir", "tabular"),
  colsep = .op("kLat.xTab.colsep", "kLat.colsep", ""), coldef = .coldef(x,
  colsep), rowsep = .op("kLat.xTab.rowsep", "kLat.rowsep", ""),
  rows = .op("kLat.xTab.rows", "kLat.rows", FALSE), head = .header(x, rows),
  foot = bottomrule)

Arguments

x

a data.frame or matrix to form the base of the table

label

set the table's label, defaults to an empty string

caption.top

sets the caption command placing it at the top of the table

caption.bottom

sets the caption command placing it at the bottom of the table

position

sets the position of the table i.e. \begin{table}['position'], defaults to 'ht'

booktabs

logical value, if not set will use value of kLat.(xTab|sTab|lTab).booktabs, if not set will use value of kLat.booktabs, if not set defaults to FALSE. When TRUE toprule defaults to '\toprule', midrule to '\midrule', and botrule to '\bottomrule', when FALSE those values all default to '\hline'. Has no effect when toprule, midrule, and botrule are individually set.

toprule

sets the value for the top rule, if not set will be determined by the value of booktabs

bottomrule

sets the value for the bottom rule, if not set will be determined by the value of booktabs

midrule

sets the value for the mid rule, if not set will be determined by the value of booktabs

align

set the alignment of the environment, if not set will use value of kLat.(xTab|sTab|lTab).align, if not will use value of kLat.align, if not set defaults to 'center'

envir

set the environment for the table, if not set will use the value of kLat.(xTab|sTab|lTab).envir, if not set defaults to 'tabular', 'supertabular', and 'longtable' for xTab, sTab, and lTab respectively

colsep

separator to be used between columns (i.e. '|'), if not set will use the value of kLat.(xTab|sTab|lTab).colsep, if not set will use the value of kLat.colsep, if not set defaults to an empty string. If coldef is set this value is ignored and the separators must be specificed in the coldef

coldef

sets column definition i.e. \begin{tabular}{'align'}, if not set defaults to numeric = right, character = left

rowsep

the separaotr to be used between rows (i.e. '\hline'), if not set will use the value of kLat.(xTab|sTab|lTab).rowsep, if not set will use the value of kLat.rowsep, if not set defaults to an empty string

rows

logical value to determine if rownames are included in table, if not set will use the value of kLat.(xTab|sTab|lTab).rows, if not set will use the value of kLat.rows, if not set defaults to FALSE, if TRUE the column name for the rownames column defaults to an empty string

head

sets the value for the table header, defaults to the column names; if you set this be sure to end with '\\\\'

foot

sets value of the table footer, defaults to the value of botrule

Examples

xTab(mtcars)
xTab(mtcars, label='my table', caption.top='tab:mytable', booktabs=TRUE)
xTab(mtcars, head='col1 & col2 & \\eta\\\\')
