table_basicstats {whomds}

Compute basic statistics of the number of members per group per household

Description

Compute basic statistics of the number of members per group per household

Usage

table_basicstats(df, hh_id, group_by_var)

Arguments

df

a data frame of household data where the rows represent members of the households in the sample

hh_id

string (length 1) indicating the name of the variable in df uniquely identifying households

group_by_var

string (length 1) to pass to group_by_at() with name of variable in df to group results by

Value

A tibble with rows for each level of group_by_var and "Total" and columns for the Mean (SD), Median and Range of the number of people in each group per household.

Note

Includes a call to tidyr::complete(), which causes the function to be a bit slow.

age_cat = ordered(sample(
  x = c("18-24", "25-39", "40-64", "64-100"),
  size = 1000,
  replace = TRUE
)))
