So, I don't even use this stuff very much any more. Most of the tasks for
summarizing data can be achieved with ease by using
dplyr and
tidyr. Some of the functions for formating
strings and what not are still helpful, but may not be stream lined with the
paradigms of the Hadley-verse.
Graphics are still useful, but this package needs to be deprecated and the contents redesigned.
Please consider using 'qwraps2' instead. Most of the methods in qwraps have been reimplemented in qwraps2.
Wrapper functions for producing base R plots using ggplot2
https://github.com/hadley/ggplot2 . Included functions
are qacf(), qroc(), qsurvplot(), with more to come.
Other wrapper functions include params which gives point estimators,
confidence intervals, and p-values from different types of regression models and
allows for (back)transforms of the coefficients.
The function tableone is being developed to allow for quick summary tables for
a dataset overall, and by a grouping variable.
I'm hoping to get a more and more people to start to use this package, find errors, and suggest enhancements.
May of the functions are particularly useful for writing data analysis reports
via knitr http://yihui.name/knitr/ and LaTeX.
To install the development version of qwraps, it's easiest to use the
devtools, https://github.com/hadley/devtools, package:
# install.packages("devtools")
library(devtools)
install_github("qwraps", username = "dewittpe")
If you are working on a Windows machine you will need to download and install
Rtools http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/ before devtools will
work for you.
