gt_summary percentage rounding


I'm trying to use tbl_summary from gtsummary package to build my descriptive statistics table with both continuous and categorical variables. However, for categorical variables, the percentages do not sum up to 100. Any suggestion on how to solve the issue?

You can see what I mean by running the code below and looking at the variables gear and carb:

data(mtcars)

library(gtsummary)
tbl <- tbl_summary(mtcars)

tbl

Solution

  • You are having a rounding problem:

    data(mtcars)
    
    library(gtsummary)
    
    tbl <- tbl_summary(mtcars, digits = list(all_categorical() ~ c(0, 3))) 
    tbl
    
    

    That code and its variants should work
