Overview

About

Maintained by Liam HallerCRAN page ↗

Visualize and tabulate single-choice, multiple-choice, matrix-style questions from survey data. Includes ability to group cross-tabulations, frequency distributions, and plots by categorical variables and to integrate survey weights. Ideal for quickly uncovering descriptive patterns in survey data.

Changes in 0.2.0

Add ability to specify response/column for matrix_freq and matrix_table functions

For example:

```{r}

matrix_freq(berlinbears,

dplyr::starts_with('p_'),

response_order = c(3,2,4,5,1), #Can also specify names

colors = c("#E1AA28", "#1E5F46", "#7E8F75", "#EFCD83", "#E17832"),

na.rm = TRUE

)

```

Updated deafult labels in matrix_freq graph to improve readability
Bug fix in matrix_mean that caused standard errors to be underestimated for weighted data

Set default order for multi_table results to be shown from high to low and removed frequency summary row for non-grouped data since it sums to \> 1

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("surveyexplorer", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-surveyexplorer

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-surveyexplorer

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-surveyexplorer

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed). We list this channel from recorded autoCRAN download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.
