similar to: formatting tables with long column names via package:xtable within Sweave

I am just starting to learn Sweave (really neat tool). I am pretty early in the learning curve (I had to think a moment ago whether a # or % was the appropriate comment character). I have successfully incorporated simple graphics and outputs, but am having trouble getting a latex (xtable) table to function properly. Latex is seemingly treating the xtable code as input or verbatim text. That

Hi, I'm using Sweave with xtable to generate Latex tables. My problem is that some of the tables are too wide, and I would like to use the tiny font for these tables, but not for the others nor for the text. I can't work out how to accomplish that. The Latex code below does what I want it to, but I have to insert the "\tiny{" and the closing "}" by hand. It

Dear R-philes: I am having an issue with exporting contingency tables with xtable(). I set up a contingency and convert it to a matrix for passing to xtable() as shown below. v.cont.table <- table(v_lda$class, grps, dnn=c("predicted", "observed")) v.cont.mat <- as.matrix(v.cont.table) Both produce output as follows: observed predicted uh uh~ uh 201

Hello list, I'm doing a table with scores and I want include colors to represent status of an individual. I'm using sweave <<results=tex>>= and xtable but I can't get a result I want. My attemps are #----------------------------------------------------------------------------- # code R da <- data.frame(id=letters[1:5], score=1:5*2) col <- function(x){

Hi, I'm working with Sweave and I have some trouble generating table. The R code is: print(xtable(myTable, caption ="", label="tab:myTab", digits=3), tabular.environment='tabular', floating=TRUE, caption.placement="top",size="\\scriptsize") and the resulting LaTeX table is: \begin{table}[ht] \begin{center} \caption{Principal

Dear R help: I am trying to use paste(), within an ifelse() statement to insert latex commands into an object that has been created using xtable(). I cannot make the strings behave as I would like, the '\t' is creating a tab, the usual method of '\\t' is not working either - nor is any series of backslashes. The xtable object, I think, automatically alters the strings. How

I have found that I like having my captions and labels in my latex document rather than having them contained in my xtable output file (I haven't fully gone to sweave yet). I know I can do something like this by using the 'only.contents' argument in xtable. Unfortunately, the only.contents argument also removes the \begin{tabular}{rrrrrr} & \end{tabular} (in the example below) of

DEar list members, I am currently using Sweave with LaTeX which is great. I can use xtable for formatting outp of tables but I have a problem setting the number of decimals in xtables when used with dataframe. I have found an example on the net ith matrix and it works. For example this works : > > tmp <- matrix(rnorm(9), 3, 3) > > xtmp <- xtable(tmp) > > digits(xtmp)

Dear useRs, Am trying to use xtable on the following data.frame and I don't get what I expect: example.table <- data.frame(rbind( c("Gender"," "," "," "), cbind(rep(" ",2),c("Male","Female"),c(3.0,4.0),c(3/7,4/7)) )) colnames(example.table) <- c(" "," ","number of

Hi all I know about producing a minimal example to show my problem. But I'm having trouble producing a minimal example that displays this behaviour, so please bear with me to begin with. Observe: I create an array called model.mat. Some details on this: > str(model.mat) num [1:18, 1:4] -0.170 -0.304 -2.617 2.025 -1.610 ... - attr(*, "dimnames")=List of 2 ..$ : chr

I could have sworn that yesterday xtable(file, booktabs = TRUE) was giving me toprule , midrule and bottomrule outout. Today : library(xtable) aa <- table( sample(letters[1:9], 100, replace = TRUE)) xtable(aa, booktabs = TRUE) gives me \begin{table}[ht] \centering \begin{tabular}{rr} \hline & V1 \\ \hline a & 15 \\ b & 11 \\ c & 13 \\ d &

Hi everyone (Pardon the incorrect terminology of my previous post: "vertical line...). I have created a function that uses xtable to print table of frequencies and percentages with a heading and some sample information (the sample size and missing values). The function and example data is below. I want a horisontal line that separates the results from the sample information i.e. a

Hi all Suppose I do the following: set.seed(1000) library(xtable) x <- runif( 10 ) y <- 1 + 2*x + rnorm( length(x) ) test.lm <- lm( y ~ x ) summary( test.lm ) xtable ( summary( test.lm ) ) The final xtable output follows: % latex table generated in R 1.8.1 by xtable 1.2-2 package % Tue Jun 22 09:56:36 2004 \begin{table}[ht] \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{rrrrr} \hline &

Hola, buenas tardes: Necesitaba un poco de socorro con xtable, si fuese posible. Mi problema es que quiero 'formatear' específicamente algunas celdas de una tabla generada con xtable y no soy capaz. Detallo el problema de ejemplo: vv<-rbind(c(1,1,0,1),c(0,0,1,1)) vv[2,3]<-<-paste("\\textbf{",vv[2,3],"}",sep="") xtable(vv) > xtable(vv) % latex

It seems that xtable does not escape special characters such as % (which indicates a comment line in LaTeX). Try these few lines for example: > library(xtable) > q<-data.frame(quantile(rnorm(100))) > xtable(q) This produces: % latex table generated in R 1.9.1 by xtable 1.2-3 package % Sat Aug 28 16:11:05 2004 \begin{table}[ht] \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{rr} \hline &

When I tried to read all the entries (after searching the FAQ) for "row names xtable", I get START-INFO-DIR-ENTRY * R FAQ: (R-FAQ). The R statistical system ... ... xtable* Export data to LaTeX and HTML tables. ... For dropping the row names of a matrix `x', it may be easier to use `rownames(x) <- NULL', similarly for column ...

HI, Dear R community, I am using the xtable to create the table, but how can I see the table? The following is the codes I used: > data(tli) > tli.table <- xtable(tli[1:10, ]) > digits(tli.table)[c(2, 6)] <- 0 > print(tli.table, floating = FALSE) % latex table generated in R 2.11.0 by xtable 1.5-6 package % Thu Jul 1 20:43:43 2010 \begin{tabular}{rrlllr} \hline &

Dear R-Devel subscriber, I encountered the following problem for tex-formatted table with xtable(). Suppose I do want the following matrix as a table in LaTeX: library(xtable) a11 <- "\\color{green}\\textbf{big green}" a21 <- "\\color{red}\\textbf{big red}" a12 <- "\\color{green}green" a22 <- "\\color{red}red" A <- matrix(c(a11, a21, a12,

Dear R users, I am new to Latex and I am using the R package xtable to generate tables. I want to produce a table that is very long. in the landscape format, but I would need to rescale the table so that it fits in the page. xtable enables me to have the landscape format, but I cannot rescale it, and there seems to be a problem, if I use scalebox in Latex on my output produced with stable and the

I would like to get rid of the row numbers using xtable and latex. The commands d = cbind(1:10,rep(1:2,5)) ans = xtable(d) latex(ans) gives output containing \begin{tabular}{rrr} \hline & 1 & 2 \\ \hline 1 & 1.00 & 1.00 \\ 2 & 2.00 & 2.00 \\ 3 & 3.00 & 1.00 \\ 4 & 4.00 & 2.00 \\ 5 & 5.00 & 1.00 \\ 6 & 6.00 &
