Render Cell Suppression (Discrete)

This is a custom render for table1 discrete variables which performs GEMINI "cell suppression" for any variable levels which contain fewer than 6 observations.

This is useful when you have an indicator variable for example, and you would like to count the total number of events. [table1::render.default.categorical()] will break down the indicator variable into its components first (0 and 1) and then give you individual counts. This will simply count 1s (for example).

Usage

render_cell_suppression.discrete(x)

Arguments

x

(character or factor)
A discrete variable to summarize.

Value

named (character)
Concatenated with "" to shift values down one row for proper alignment.

Examples

x <- 1:6
render_cell_suppression.discrete(x)
#>       Sum 
#>   "" "21" 

y <- 1:2
render_cell_suppression.discrete(y)
#>                                                   Sum 
#>                         "" "&lt; 6 obs. (suppressed)"
