tabstats is a lightweight package in action, ideal for development, that allows end users to print out the data they want to present as a table in the command line, with further enhancements that modify the table with styles and alignment. This is very useful when displaying statistical results on the R console/command line as a table.

Example

Here’s a basic example that demonstrates how to use tabstats to format and style a table:

table_default(head(mtcars, 5))
#> ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
#>    mpg    cyl  disp  hp   drat    wt     qsec   vs  am  gear  carb  
#> ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
#>   21.000   6   160   110  3.900  2.620  16.460  0   1    4     4    
#>   21.000   6   160   110  3.900  2.875  17.020  0   1    4     4    
#>   22.800   4   108   93   3.850  2.320  18.610  1   1    4     1    
#>   21.400   6   258   110  3.080  3.215  19.440  1   0    3     1    
#>   18.700   8   360   175  3.150  3.440  17.020  0   0    3     2    
#> ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
