Easy statistics with Kable

Created: 2016-10-20 ; Updated: 2016-10-20

Let’s say I have a big data frame with columns for age and gender, and I want to quickly summarize the information.

Here’s a simple way to make a pretty summary table:

knitr::kable(with(g3.all,
	prop.table(table(gender,cut(age,seq(0,75,by=15))))*100),
	digits=2)

Here is a table:

(0,15] (15,30] (30,45] (45,60] (60,75]
0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00
Female 0.71 9.01 17.62 13.39 6.66
Male 1.06 11.31 23.47 11.35 4.77
None 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00
Other 0.00 0.06 0.22 0.17 0.10
Select 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00
Transgender 0.00 0.04 0.06 0.00 0.00
