Sorts a data set conditionally in a cross table. This can be helpful to get a sense of the time and scope conditions of a data set. Note, if used with a data set that has multiple observations on the id-time unit, the function automatically aggregates this information using the mean.
overview_crosstab(dat, cond1, cond2, threshold1, threshold2, id, time)
dat | A data set object |
---|---|
cond1 | Variable that describes the first condition |
cond2 | Variable that describes the second condition |
threshold1 | A threshold for |
threshold2 | A threshold for |
id | Scope (e.g., country codes or individual IDs) |
time | Time (e.g., time periods given by years, months, ...) |
A data frame object that contains a summary of the data set that can
later be converted to a 'LaTeX' output using overview_print
