Creation of a stub column is accomplished by the `stub()` function, which identifies two or more variables to merge into a single column. The `label_row` parameter tells `write_report()` to use that variable as a label row, and the `indent` parameter nests the second variable value under the first: ```{r eval=FALSE, echo=TRUE} library(reporter) # Create temporary path tmp <- file.path(tempdir(), "example3.rtf") # Read in prepared data df <- read.table(header = TRUE, text = ' var label A B "ampg" "N" "19" "13" "ampg" "Mean" "18.8 (6.5)" "22.0 (4.9)" "ampg" "Median" "16.4" "21.4" "ampg" "Q1 - Q3" "15.1 - 21.2" "19.2 - 22.8" "ampg" "Range" "10.4 - 33.9" "14.7 - 32.4" "cyl" "8 Cylinder" "10 ( 52.6%)" "4 ( 30.8%)" "cyl" "6 Cylinder" "4 ( 21.1%)" "3 ( 23.1%)" "cyl" "4 Cylinder" "5 ( 26.3%)" "6 ( 46.2%)"') # Create table tbl <- create_table(df, first_row_blank = TRUE) %>% stub(c("var", "label")) %>% define(var, blank_after = TRUE, label_row = TRUE, format = c(ampg = "Miles Per Gallon", cyl = "Cylinders")) %>% define(label, indent = .25) %>% define(A, label = "Group A", align = "center", n = 19) %>% define(B, label = "Group B", align = "center", n = 13) # Create report and add content rpt <- create_report(tmp, output_type = "RTF", font = "Times", font_size = 12) %>% page_header(left = "Client: Motor Trend", right = "Study: Cars") %>% titles("Table 1.0", "MTCARS Summary Table") %>% add_content(tbl) %>% footnotes("* Motor Trend, 1974") %>% page_footer(left = Sys.time(), center = "Confidential", right = "Page [pg] of [tpg]") # Write out report write_report(rpt) # file.show(tmp) ``` Next: [Example 4: Table and Text](reporter-text.html)
