An {arsenal} of R Functions for Statistical Summaries

Ethan Heinzen, Senior Data Science Analyst at Mayo Clinic, presents the {Arsenal} package, R Functions for Statistical Summaries. Heinzen starts the presentation with {rlocal}, which was an internal package for use only at the Mayo Clinic, the “public” functions were then taken into a CRAN package which then came {arsenal}. The five main functions of {arsenal} are further explained, these include tableby, modelsum, freqlist, comparedf, and write2.
