Arguments

data	a data.frame to convert to tabular table; the user should filter or subset so that `data` contains exactly the rows (and columns) to be processed; pmtables will not add or remove rows prior to processing `data`; see also `st_new()`
...	passed to other functions: `tab_hlines()`, `tab_spanners()`, `tab_notes()`, `tab_cols()`, `tab_clear_reps()` and `make_tabular()`
align	an alignment object created by `cols_align()`, `cols_left()`, `cols_center()`, or `cols_right()`; see also `st_align()`
panel	character column name to use to section the table; sections will be created from unique values of `data[[panel]]`; see also `st_panel()`
span	a list of objects created with `colgroup()`; ; see also `st_span()`
notes	a character vector of notes to include at the foot of the table; use `r_file` and `output_file` for source code and output file annotations; see `tab_notes()` for arguments to pass in order to configure the way notes appear in the output; see also `st_notes()`
sumrows	an object created with `sumrow()`; identifies summary rows and adds styling; see also `st_sumrow()`
units	a named list with unit information; names should correspond to columns in the data frame
drop	columns to remove prior to rendering the table
sizes	an object returned from `tab_size()`
control	not used at the moment
escape_fun	a function passed to `prime_fun` that will sanitize column data
inspect	if `TRUE`, extra information is attached to the output as an attribute called `stable_data`; see `get_stable_data()`

Examples

data <- ptdata()

a <- stable(data, r_file = "example.R", output_file = "output.tex")

b <- stable(data, panel = "STUDY")

c <- stable(data, span = colgroup("Covariates", STUDY:ALB))
