这是一个可重现的例子

#install.packages("expss")
library("expss")
data(mtcars)
mtcars = apply_labels(mtcars,
                      mpg = "Miles/(US) gallon",
                      cyl = "Number of cylinders",
                      disp = "Displacement (cu.in.)",
                      hp = "Gross horsepower",
                      drat = "Rear axle ratio",
                      wt = "Weight (1000 lbs)",
                      qsec = "1/4 mile time",
                      vs = "Engine",
                      vs = c("V-engine" = 0,
                             "Straight engine" = 1),
                      am = "Transmission",
                      am = c("Automatic" = 0,
                             "Manual"=1),
                      gear = "Number of forward gears",
                      carb = "Number of carburetors"
)

mtcars %>%
  tab_cols(total(),vs,gear) %>%
  tab_cells(gear) %>% 
  tab_stat_cpct(total_row_position = "none", label = "col %") %>%
  tab_pivot(stat_position = "inside_rows") 

根据我的情况,我想动态地传递tab_cols(total(),vs,gear)中变量的信息。因此,为了便于使用,我想评估一下这样的功能:

var1 <- "vs, gear"

mtcars %>%
  tab_cols(total(),var1) %>%
  tab_cells(gear) %>% 
  tab_stat_cpct(total_row_position = "none", label = "col %") %>%
  tab_pivot(stat_position = "inside_rows") 

显然错误!我知道懒惰的评估只适用于单个参数。因此尝试了很多在多个论坛上搜索但没有运气。

所以,一个好方法可能是:

var1 <- "vs"
var2 <- "gear"
mtcars %>%
  tab_cols(total(),eval(parse(text = var1)),eval(parse(text = var2))) %>%
  tab_cells(gear) %>% 
  tab_stat_cpct(total_row_position = "none", label = "col %") %>%
  tab_pivot(stat_position = "inside_rows") 

但我希望用一个变量实现这一点(它可以是字符串或矢量形式的变量信息),因为变量可能存储3或4列信息。

文档table_cols表示您可以传递列名列表。所以这似乎做你想要的:

vars <- expression(list(vs, gear))

mtcars %>%
  tab_cols(total(), eval(vars)) %>%
  tab_cells(gear) %>% 
  tab_stat_cpct(total_row_position = "none", label = "col %") %>%
  tab_pivot(stat_position = "inside_rows")

expss中有一个特殊的工具来传递参数:

var1 <- "vs, gear"
var_names = trimws(unlist(strsplit(var1, split = ","))) 

mtcars %>%
    tab_cols(total(), ..[(var_names)]) %>%
    tab_cells(gear) %>% 
    tab_stat_cpct(total_row_position = "none", label = "col %") %>%
    tab_pivot(stat_position = "inside_rows")
