Table NA values

Tables out whether data are NAs are not

Usage

tableNA(..., .list = FALSE)

Arguments

...

one or more objects which can be interpreted as factors (including numbers or character strings), or a list (such as a data frame) whose components can be so interpreted. (For as.table, arguments passed to specific methods; for as.data.frame, unused.)

.list

Logical, if TRUE and ... is a list, will c

Value

table() returns a contingency table, an object of class "table", an array of integer values. Note that unlike S the result is always an array, a 1D array if one factor is given.

as.table and is.table coerce to and test for contingency table, respectively.

The as.data.frame method for objects inheriting from class "table" can be used to convert the array-based representation of a contingency table to a data frame containing the classifying factors and the corresponding entries (the latter as component named by responseName). This is the inverse of xtabs.

Details

All data are checked with is.na() and the resulting TRUE or FALSE is are tabulated.
