Basic character row:
vec = c("hello", "world")
TexRow(vec)
#> % created using textab on Tue Apr 25 07:41:52 2023
#> \begin{tabular}{rr}
#> hello & world \\
#> \end{tabular}Character row with LaTeX formatting:
vec = c('Hello','\\textbf{World}','$\\alpha$','$\\frac{1}{2}$')
TexRow(vec)
#> % created using textab on Tue Apr 25 07:41:52 2023
#> \begin{tabular}{rrrr}
#> Hello & \textbf{World} & $\alpha$ & $\frac{1}{2}$ \\
#> \end{tabular}Note: Double backslashes are required for LaTeX commands.
Basic numeric row:
vec <- c(1.0, 1.01, 1.001)
TexRow(vec)
#> % created using textab on Tue Apr 25 07:41:52 2023
#> \begin{tabular}{rrr}
#> 1.000 & 1.010 & 1.001 \\
#> \end{tabular}Numeric row rounded to the second decimal place:
vec <- c(1.0, 1.01, 1.001)
TexRow(vec, dec = 2)
#> % created using textab on Tue Apr 25 07:41:52 2023
#> \begin{tabular}{rrr}
#> 1.00 & 1.01 & 1.00 \\
#> \end{tabular}There are four other arguments specific to numeric rows:
percentage: if TRUE, add a “%” sign after each
number.dollar: if TRUE, add a “$” sign before each
number.se: if TRUE, surround each number with
parentheses.pvalues: if provided, these numbers are used to add
stars “*” after the numbers.See this article about formatting numbers.
While many common formatting options are explicitly provided in
TexRow, we also include the surround argument
so that the user can specify custom formatting.
The surround argument allows you to provide raw LaTeX code. Place the
%s symbol wherever your number or character should be
placed.
Suppose you wish to make each number red. In LaTeX, you can make a
number red using the code {\color{red} %s}, where
%s indicates where the number should go. In order to make
each number red, we would specify the following:
vec = c(5.081, 2.345, 6.789)
TexRow(vec, dec = 1, surround = "{\\color{red} %s}")
#> % created using textab on Tue Apr 25 07:41:52 2023
#> \begin{tabular}{rrr}
#> {\color{red} 5.1} & {\color{red} 2.3} & {\color{red} 6.8} \\
#> \end{tabular}Note: Double backslashes are required for LaTeX commands.
The surround argument works for character vectors as
well, and we can apply different formatting to each value:
Merge and center the second and third rows using the
cspan argument:
vec = c("hello", "world")
TexRow(vec, cspan = c(1,2))
#> % created using textab on Tue Apr 25 07:41:52 2023
#> \begin{tabular}{rr}
#> hello & \multicolumn{2}{c}{world} \\
#> \end{tabular}Merge and left-align the second and third rows using the
position argument:
vec = c("hello", "world")
TexRow(vec, cspan = c(1,2), position = "l")
#> % created using textab on Tue Apr 25 07:41:52 2023
#> \begin{tabular}{rr}
#> hello & \multicolumn{2}{l}{world} \\
#> \end{tabular}Two multi-column rows, where the first is two-column left-aligned and the second is three-column right-aligned:
The slash sign / combines rows side-by-side:
The plus sign + stacks rows vertically:
When using both horizontal and vertical concatenation in the same line, horizontal concatenation will be performed first:
first_block = TexRow(c("hello", "world"))
second_block = TexRow(c("$\\alpha$"))
third_block = TexRow(c("$\\frac{1}{2}$"))
combined_row = first_block + second_block / third_block
combined_row
#> % created using textab on Tue Apr 25 07:41:52 2023
#> \begin{tabular}{rr}
#> hello & world \\
#> $\alpha$ & $\frac{1}{2}$ \\
#> \end{tabular}To add 3pt of space between two rows:
Add a full midrule between two rows:
TexRow(c("hello", "world"), cspan=c(1,2)) +
TexMidrule() +
TexRow(c('$\\alpha$','$\\frac{1}{2}$','$\\sqrt{\\frac{2}{3}}$'))
#> % created using textab on Tue Apr 25 07:41:52 2023
#> \begin{tabular}{rrr}
#> hello & \multicolumn{2}{c}{world} \\
#> \midrule
#> $\alpha$ & $\frac{1}{2}$ & $\sqrt{\frac{2}{3}}$ \\
#> \end{tabular}Add two partial midrules:
TexRow(c("hello", "world"), cspan=c(1,2)) +
TexMidrule(list(c(1,1), c(2,3))) +
TexRow(c('$\\alpha$','$\\frac{1}{2}$','$\\sqrt{\\frac{2}{3}}$'))
#> % created using textab on Tue Apr 25 07:41:52 2023
#> \begin{tabular}{rrr}
#> hello & \multicolumn{2}{c}{world} \\
#> \cmidrule(lr){1-1} \cmidrule(lr){2-3}
#> $\alpha$ & $\frac{1}{2}$ & $\sqrt{\frac{2}{3}}$ \\
#> \end{tabular}Let us work with the following table:
tt = TexRow(c("hello", "world"), cspan=c(1,2), surround = c("{\\color{red} %s}", "{\\color{blue} %s}")) +
TexMidrule(list(c(1,1), c(2,3))) +
TexRow(c('$\\alpha$','$\\frac{1}{2}$','$\\sqrt{\\frac{2}{3}}$'))Save a simple .tex document containing this table:
Save a stand-alone .tex document that could be compiled, as it has begin-document and end-document statements as well as import statements for common LaTeX packages:
TexSave(tab = tt, positions = c("l","c","c"),
filename = "example2", output_path = tempdir(),
stand_alone = TRUE)Note: these examples saved the table to a temporary directory,
tempdir(). In practice, you will likely want to save the
table to a permanent directory. If you do not provide an
output_path, the table will be saved to your current
working directory, getwd().
Produce and compile the stand-alone .tex document to .pdf:
TexSave(tab = tt, positions = c("l","c","c"),
filename = "example3", output_path = tempdir(),
stand_alone = TRUE, compile_tex = TRUE)The final command will produce a PDF similar to this.
