Re-align existing "n (xx.x)" strings to a uniform display width

Deprecated in 0.8.x (it says so once a session and still works), removed in 0.9.0: the same alignment is as_rtftables(align_count_pct = TRUE), or the built-in cell format "count_pct" (as_rtftables(cell_format = "count_pct")).

Usage

realign_count_pct(x, nbsp = " ", na = "")

Arguments

x

Character vector. Cells that match the regex ^\\d+ \\(\\d+(\\.\\d+)?\\)$ are reformatted; all others are returned unchanged.

nbsp

Padding character (see fmt_count_pct()).

na

Text to print for a missing cell – an NA in x, or a cell that already holds this token because as_rtftables() substituted it. It is right-justified in the count field, so its right edge lands on the ones digit. The default "" leaves the cell empty, as before. Text that is neither the token nor a count/percent cell ("NE", "n/a", free text) is still returned unchanged and unpadded.

Value

Character vector the same length as x.

Details

Scans x for cells matching the clinical-TFL pattern "n (xx.x)" (e.g. "5 (33.3)"), parses the count and percent, and reformats them through fmt_count_pct() so every cell is the same width. Cells that do not match are returned unchanged.

See also

fmt_count_pct() for the numeric -> string variant.
