Dear all, I did post this more or less identical mail in a follow up to another question I posted, but under another heading. I try again, but now under the correct header.
upon running this code (from the Hmisc library-latex function) I believe the call to summary.formula is allright and produces wonderful tables, but the latex command results in a correct formatted table but where all the numbers and the test columns are wrong. I've pasted in both the R code and the resulting latex code annotated with comments from the run. Does the same code produce correct cell-entries in other installation ? //M library(Hmisc) options(digits=3) set.seed(173) sex <- factor(sample(c("m","f"), 500, rep=TRUE)) age <- rnorm(500, 50, 5) treatment <- factor(sample(c("Drug","Placebo"), 500, rep=TRUE)) symp <- c('Headache','Stomach Ache','Hangnail', 'Muscle Ache','Depressed') symptom1 <- sample(symp, 500,TRUE) symptom2 <- sample(symp, 500,TRUE) symptom3 <- sample(symp, 500,TRUE) Symptoms <- mChoice(symptom1, symptom2, symptom3, label='Primary Symptoms') table (Symptoms) table(symptom1,symptom2) f <- summary(treatment ~ age + sex + Symptoms, method="reverse", test=TRUE) g <- summary(treatment ~ age + sex + symptom1, method="reverse", test=TRUE) latex(g) > latex(g,file="") % latex.default(cstats, title = title, caption = caption, rowlabel = rowlabel, col.just = col.just, numeric.dollar = FALSE, insert.bottom = legend, rowname = lab, dcolumn = dcolumn, extracolheads = extracolheads, extracolsize = Nsize, ...) % \begin{table}[!tbp] \caption{Descriptive Statistics by treatment\label{g}} \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{lccc}\hline\hline \multicolumn{1}{l}{}&\multicolumn{1}{c}{Drug}&\multicolumn{1}{c}{Placebo}&\multicolumn{1}{c}{Test Statistic}\tabularnewline &\multicolumn{1}{c}{{\scriptsize $N=263$}}&\multicolumn{1}{c}{{\scriptsize $N=237$}}&\tabularnewline \hline age&1&1&4\tabularnewline sex~:~m&6&7&2\tabularnewline symptom1~:~Depressed&4&3&3\tabularnewline ~~~~Hangnail&5&6&1\tabularnewline ~~~~Headache&4&2&1\tabularnewline ~~~~Muscle~Ache&3&5&1\tabularnewline ~~~~Stomach~Ache&2&4&1\tabularnewline \hline \end{tabular} \end{center} \noindent {\scriptsize $a$\ }{$b$\ }{\scriptsize $c$\ } represent the lower quartile $a$, the median $b$, and the upper quartile $c$\ for continuous variables.\\Numbers after percents are frequencies.\\\indent Tests used:\\\textsuperscript{\normalfont 1}Wilcoxon test; \textsuperscript{\normalfont 2}Pearson test \end{table} ###Then I did another example from Harrell“s "statistical tables and plots...." rm(list=ls()) library(Hmisc) getHdata(prostate) # Variables in prostate had units in ( ) inside variable labels. Move # these units of measurements to separate units attributes # wt is an exception. It has ( ) in its label but this does not denote units # Also make hg have a legal R plotmath expression prostate<-upData(prostate, moveUnits=TRUE,units=c(wt="", hg="g/100*ml"),labels=c(wt="Weight Index = wt(kg)-ht(cm)+200")) attach(prostate) stage<- factor(stage, 3:4, c("Stage 3","Stage 4")) s6<-summary(stage~rx+age+wt+pf+hx+sbp+dbp+ekg+hg+sz+sg+ap+bm,method="reverse", overall=TRUE, test=TRUE) options(digits=2) w<-latex(s6, size="smaller[3]", outer.size="smaller", Nsize="smaller",long=TRUE, prmsd=TRUE, msdsize="smaller",middle.bold=TRUE, ctable=TRUE) ##This refused to run ( as long as the ctable=T was included), but without it latex (s6) ##I do get a nicely formated table, but again the numbers are all wrong... Also ##latex(s6, long=TRUE, prmsd=TRUE, msdsize="smaller",middle.bold=TRUE) ##makes no difference from latex(s6) alone with regards to formatting... Quite frustrating-Any suggestions?? //M ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
