catfun simplifies existing functions for categorical data analysis.
devtools::install_github("nt-williams/catfun")R currently supports a wide variety of tools for the analysis of categorical data. However, many functions are spread across a variety of packages with differing syntax and poor compatibility with each another.
To address this issue, catfun includes wrapper functions around existing functions for tests of proportions, power analyses for proportions, and measures of association into one structure.
For example, prop_test() combines the base R functions
binom.test(), prop.test() and
BinomCI() from the DescTools package into one. The
3 mentioned functions all perform important aspects of testing for
differences among proportions but are now used to create one output with
all relevant information within one spot.
