table(exclude = NULL) always includes NA
I stand corrected. The part "If set to 'NULL', it implies 'useNA="always"'." is even in the documentation in R 2.8.0. It was my fault not to check carefully.
I wonder, why "always" was chosen for 'useNA' for exclude = NULL.
Why exclude = NULL is so special? What about another 'exclude' of length zero, like character(0) (not c(),

table(exclude = NULL) always includes NA
useNA <- if (missing(useNA) && !missing(exclude) && !(NA %in% exclude)) "ifany"
An example where it change 'table' result for non-factor input, from https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2005-April/069053.html :
x <- c(1,2,3,3,NA)
table(as.integer(x), exclude=NaN)
I bring the example up, in case that the change in result is not intended.

table(exclude = NULL) always includes NA
The quirk as in table(1:3, exclude = 1, useNA = "ifany") is actually somewhat documented, and still in R devel r71104. In R help on 'table', in "Details" section:
It is best to supply factors rather than rely on coercion.  In particular, ?exclude? will be used in coercion to a factor, and so values (not levels) which appear in ?exclude? before coercion will be mapped to

table(exclude = NULL) always includes NA
Looking at the code of function 'table' in R devel r71227, I see that the part "remove NA level if it was added only for excluded in factor(a, exclude=.)" is not quite right.
In
		is.na(a) <- match(a0, c(exclude,NA), nomatch=0L)   ,
I think that what is intended is
                a[a0 %in% c(exclude,NA)] <- NA  .
So, it should be
		is.na(a) <- match(a0, c(exclude,NA),

table() and setting useNA to be there by default?
Good morning,
Is there a way to get table() to default to including NAs  - as in...
table(..., useNA='ifany') or  table(..., useNA='always') or table(...,
exclude=NULL)  ?
I can't see a way under table() or options() or searching the archives
(probably using the wrong keyword?).

Problem with table
R version 2.14.0, started with --vanilla
 > table(c(1,2,3,4,NA), exclude=2, useNA='ifany')
    1    3    4 <NA>
    1    1    1    2
This came from a local user who wanted to remove one particular response 
from some tables, but also wants to have NA always reported for data 
checking purposes.
   I don't think the above is what anyone would want.

a fast table() for the 1D case
Hi,
table1D() below can be up to 60x faster than base::table() for the 1D
case. Here are the detailed speedups compared to base::table().
   o With a logical vector of length 5M:     11x faster
                                     (or more if 'useNA="always"')
   o With factor/integer/numeric/character of length 1M and 9 levels
     (or 9 distinct values for non-factors):

Emacs function argument hints
Hi 
I've recently started using Emacs as my text editor for writing R script. 
I am looking for a feature which I have seen on the standard R text editor
for Mac OS. In the Mac OS editor when you start typing a function, the
possible arguments for that function appear at the bottom of the window.
E.g. if you type "table( "  before you finish typing you can see at the

Coercion of 'exclude' in function 'factor' (was 'droplevels' inappropriate change)
I am basically fine with the change.
How about using just the following?
    if(!is.character(exclude))
        exclude <- as.vector(exclude, typeof(x)) # may result in NA
    x <- as.character(x)
It looks simpler and is, more or less, equivalent.
In factor.Rd, in description of argument 'exclude', "(when \code{x} is a \code{factor} already)" can be removed.

factor(x, exclude=y) if x is a factor
I found this part in the documentation of 'factor'.
     'factor(x, exclude=NULL)' applied to a factor is a no-operation
     unless there are unused levels: in that case, a factor with the
     reduced level set is returned.  If 'exclude' is used it should
     also be a factor with the same level set as 'x' or a set of codes
     for the levels to be excluded.

'droplevels' inappropriate change
In R devel r71124, if 'x' is a factor, droplevels(x) gives
factor(x, exclude = NULL) .
In R 3.3.1, it gives
factor(x) .
If a factor 'x' has NA and levels of 'x' doesn't contain NA, factor(x) gives the expected result for droplevels(x) , but factor(x, exclude = NULL) doesn't. As I said in https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2016-May/072796.html , factor(x,

In R 3.3.0 (also in R 2.7.2), the documentation on 'factor', in "Details" section, has this statement.

It is not true for a factor 'x' that has NA. In that case, if levels of 'x' doesn't

svytable including NAs
Dear all
I'm creating two way tables based on weighted survey data using svytable and want to include NAs as a level in the table.
For unweighted data I use table(..., useNA="ifany"). Is there any equivalent for svytable? 
If not, is there a solution using a different function?
Thanks
