chop_quantiles() chops data by quantiles. chop_deciles() is a convenience shortcut and chops into deciles.

Usage

chop_quantiles(x, probs, ..., left = is.numeric(x), raw = FALSE)

chop_deciles(x, ...)

brk_quantiles(probs, ...)

tab_quantiles(x, probs, ..., left = is.numeric(x), raw = FALSE)

tab_deciles(x, ...)

Arguments

x

A vector.

probs

A vector of probabilities for the quantiles. If probs has names, these will be used for labels.

...

Passed to chop(), or for brk_quantiles() to stats::quantile().

left

Logical. Left-closed or right-closed breaks?

raw

Logical. Use raw values in labels?

Value

chop_* functions return a factor of the same length as x.

brk_* functions return a function to create breaks.

tab_* functions return a contingency table().

Details

For non-numeric x, left is set to FALSE by default. This works better for calculating "type 1" quantiles, since they round down. See stats::quantile().
