Estimations table (export the results of multiples estimations to a DF or to Latex)

Aggregates the results of multiple estimations and displays them in the form of either a Latex table or a data.frame. Note that you will need the booktabs package for the Latex table to render properly. See setFixest_etable to set the default values, and style.tex to customize Latex output.

Arguments

...

Used to capture different fixest estimation objects (obtained with femlm, feols or feglm). Note that any other type of element is discarded. Note that you can give a list of fixest objects.

vcov

Versatile argument to specify the VCOV. In general, it is either a character scalar equal to a VCOV type, either a formula of the form: vcov_type ~ variables. The VCOV types implemented are: "iid", "hetero" (or "HC1"), "cluster", "twoway", "NW" (or "newey_west"), "DK" (or "driscoll_kraay"), and "conley". It also accepts object from vcov_cluster, vcov_NW, NW, vcov_DK, DK, vcov_conley and conley. It also accepts covariance matrices computed externally. Finally it accepts functions to compute the covariances. See the vcov documentation in the vignette. You can pass several VCOVs (as above) if you nest them into a list. If the number of VCOVs equals the number of models, eahc VCOV is mapped to the appropriate model. If there is one model and several VCOVs, or if the first element of the list is equal to "each" or "times", then the estimations will be replicated and the results for each estimation and each VCOV will be reported.

stage

Can be equal to 2 (default), 1, 1:2 or 2:1. Only used if the object is an IV estimation: defines the stage to which summary should be applied. If stage = 1 and there are multiple endogenous regressors or if stage is of length 2, then an object of class fixest_multi is returned.

agg

A character scalar describing the variable names to be aggregated, it is pattern-based. For sunab estimations, the following keywords work: "att", "period", "cohort" and FALSE (to have full disaggregation). All variables that match the pattern will be aggregated. It must be of the form "(root)", the parentheses must be there and the resulting variable name will be "root". You can add another root with parentheses: "(root1)regex(root2)", in which case the resulting name is "root1::root2". To name the resulting variable differently you can pass a named vector: c("name" = "pattern") or c("name" = "pattern(root2)"). It's a bit intricate sorry, please see the examples.

se

Character scalar. Which kind of standard error should be computed: “standard”, “hetero”, “cluster”, “twoway”, “threeway” or “fourway”? By default if there are clusters in the estimation: se = "cluster", otherwise se = "iid". Note that this argument is deprecated, you should use vcov instead.

ssc

An object of class ssc.type obtained with the function ssc. Represents how the degree of freedom correction should be done.You must use the function ssc for this argument. The arguments and defaults of the function ssc are: K.adj = TRUE, K.fixef = "nonnested", G.adj = TRUE, G.df = "min", t.df = "min", K.exact = FALSE). See the help of the function ssc for details.

cluster

Tells how to cluster the standard-errors (if clustering is requested). Can be either a list of vectors, a character vector of variable names, a formula or an integer vector. Assume we want to perform 2-way clustering over var1 and var2 contained in the data.frame base used for the estimation. All the following cluster arguments are valid and do the same thing: cluster = base[, c("var1", "var2")], cluster = c("var1", "var2"), cluster = ~var1+var2. If the two variables were used as fixed-effects in the estimation, you can leave it blank with vcov = "twoway" (assuming var1 [resp. var2] was the 1st [resp. 2nd] fixed-effect). You can interact two variables using ^ with the following syntax: cluster = ~var1^var2 or cluster = "var1^var2".

.vcov_args

A list containing arguments to be passed to the function vcov.

digits

Integer or character scalar. Default is 4 and represents the number of significant digits to be displayed for the coefficients and standard-errors. To apply rounding instead of significance use, e.g., digits = "r3" which will round at the first 3 decimals. If character, it must be of the form "rd" or "sd" with d a digit (r is for round and s is for significance). For the number of digits for the fit statistics, use digits.stats. Note that when significance is used it does not exactly display the number of significant digits: see details for its exact meaning.

digits.stats

Integer or character scalar. Default is 5 and represents the number of significant digits to be displayed for the fit statistics. To apply rounding instead of significance use, e.g., digits = "r3" which will round at the first 3 decimals. If character, it must be of the form "rd" or "sd" with d a digit (r is for round and s is for significance). Note that when significance is used it does not exactly display the number of significant digits: see details for its exact meaning.

fitstat

A character vector or a one sided formula (both with only lowercase letters). A vector listing which fit statistics to display. The valid types are 'n', 'll', 'aic', 'bic' and r2 types like 'r2', 'pr2', 'war2', etc (see all valid types in r2). Also accepts valid types from the function fitstat. The default value depends on the models to display. Example of use: fitstat=c('n', 'cor2', 'ar2', 'war2'), or fitstat=~n+cor2+ar2+war2 using a formula. You can use the dot to refer to default values: ~ . + ll would add the log-likelihood to the default fit statistics.

coefstat

One of "se" (default), "tstat", "pvalue", or "confint". The statistic to report for each coefficient: the standard-error, the t-statistics, the p-value, or the confidence interval. You can adjust the confidence interval with the argument ci.

ci

Level of the confidence interval, defaults to 0.95. Only used if coefstat = confint.

se.row

Logical scalar, default is NULL. Whether should be displayed the row with the type of standard-error for each model. When tex = FALSE, the default is TRUE. When tex = FALSE, the row is showed only when there is a table-footer and the types of standard-errors differ across models.

se.below

Logical or NULL (default). Should the standard-errors be displayed below the coefficients? If NULL, then this is TRUE for Latex and FALSE otherwise.

keep

Character vector. This element is used to display only a subset of variables. This should be a vector of regular expressions (see base::regex help for more info). Each variable satisfying any of the regular expressions will be kept. This argument is applied post aliasing (see argument dict). Example: you have the variable x1 to x55 and want to display only x1 to x9, then you could use keep = "x[[:digit:]]$". If the first character is an exclamation mark, the effect is reversed (e.g. keep = "!Intercept" means: every variable that does not contain “Intercept” is kept). See details.

drop

Character vector. This element is used if some variables are not to be displayed. This should be a vector of regular expressions (see base::regex help for more info). Each variable satisfying any of the regular expressions will be discarded. This argument is applied post aliasing (see argument dict). Example: you have the variable x1 to x55 and want to display only x1 to x9, then you could use drop = "x[[:digit:]]{2}". If the first character is an exclamation mark, the effect is reversed (e.g. drop = "!Intercept" means: every variable that does not contain “Intercept” is dropped). See details.

order

Character vector. This element is used if the user wants the variables to be ordered in a certain way. This should be a vector of regular expressions (see base::regex help for more info). The variables satisfying the first regular expression will be placed first, then the order follows the sequence of regular expressions. This argument is applied post aliasing (see argument dict). Example: you have the following variables: month1 to month6, then x1 to x5, then year1 to year6. If you want to display first the x's, then the years, then the months you could use: order = c("x", "year"). If the first character is an exclamation mark, the effect is reversed (e.g. order = "!Intercept" means: every variable that does not contain “Intercept” goes first). See details.

dict

A named character vector or a logical scalar. It changes the original variable names to the ones contained in the dictionary. E.g. to change the variables named a and b3 to (resp.) “$log(a)$” and to “$bonus^3$”, use dict=c(a="$log(a)$",b3="$bonus^3$"). By default, it is equal to getFixest_dict(), a default dictionary which can be set with setFixest_dict. You can use dict = FALSE to disable it. By default dict modifies the entries in the global dictionary, to disable this behavior, use "reset" as the first element (ex: dict=c("reset", mpg="Miles per gallon")).

file

A character scalar. If provided, the Latex (or data frame) table will be saved in a file whose path is file. If you provide this argument, then a Latex table will be exported, to export a regular data.frame, use argument tex = FALSE.

replace

Logical, default is FALSE. Only used if option file is used. Should the exported table be written in a new file that replaces any existing file?

create_dirs

Logical, default is FALSE. Only used if when some file needs to be created (e;g. when file or export is used). By default, i.e. when FALSE, if the parent directory does not exist, the containing folders are created up to the grand parent. If TRUE, all containing folders are recursively created.

convergence

Logical, default is missing. Should the convergence state of the algorithm be displayed? By default, convergence information is displayed if at least one model did not converge.

signif.code

Named numeric vector, used to provide the significance codes with respect to the p-value of the coefficients. Default is c("***"=0.01, "**"=0.05, "*"=0.10) for a Latex table and c("***"=0.001, "**"=0.01, "*"=0.05, "."=0.10) for a data.frame (to conform with R's default). To suppress the significance codes, use signif.code=NA or signif.code=NULL. Can also be equal to "letters", then the default becomes c("a"=0.01, "b"=0.05, "c"=0.10).

headers

Character vector or list. Adds one or more header lines in the table. A header line can be represented by a character vector or a named list of numbers where the names are the cell values and the numbers are the span. Example: headers=list("M"=2, "F"=3) will create a row with 2 times "M" and three time "F" (this is identical to headers=rep(c("M", "F"), c(2, 3))). You can stack header lines within a list, in that case the list names will be displayed in the leftmost cell. Example: headers=list(Gender=list("M"=2, "F"=3), Country="US" will create two header lines. When tex = TRUE, you can add a rule to separate groups by using ":_:" somewhere in the row name (ex: headers=list(":_:Gender"=list("M"=2, "F"=3)). You can monitor the placement by inserting a special character in the row name: "^" means at the top, "-" means in the middle (default) and "_" means at the bottom. Example: headers=list("_Country"="US") will add the country row as the very last header row (after the model row). Finally, you can use the special value "auto" to include automatic headers when the data contains split sample estimations. By default it is equal to list("auto"). You can use .() instead of list().

fixef_sizes

(Tex only.) Logical, default is FALSE. If TRUE and fixed-effects were used in the models, then the number of "units" per fixed-effect dimension is also displayed.

fixef_sizes.simplify

Logical, default is TRUE. Only used if fixef_sizes = TRUE. If TRUE, the fixed-effects sizes will be displayed in parentheses instead of in a separate line if there is no ambiguity (i.e. if the size is constant across models).

keepFactors

Logical, default is TRUE. If FALSE, then factor variables are displayed as fixed-effects and no coefficient is shown.

family

Logical, default is missing. Whether to display the families of the models. By default this line is displayed when at least two models are from different families.

powerBelow

(Tex only.) Integer, default is -5. A coefficient whose value is below 10**(powerBelow+1) is written with a power in Latex. For example 0.0000456 would be written 4.56$\\times 10^{-5}$ by default. Setting powerBelow = -6 would lead to 0.00004 in Latex.

interaction.combine

Character scalar, defaults to " $\\times$ " for Tex and to " x " otherwise. When the estimation contains interactions, then the variables names (after aliasing) are combined with this argument. For example: if dict = c(x1="Wind", x2="Rain") and you have the following interaction x1:x2, then it will be renamed (by default) Wind $\\times$ Rain – using interaction.combine = "*" would lead to Wind*Rain.

interaction.order

Character vector of regular expressions. Only affects variables that are interacted like x1 and x2 in feols(y ~ x1*x2, data). You can change the order in which the interacted variables are displayed: e.g. interaction.order = "x2" would lead to "x2 x x1" instead of "x1 x x2". Please look at the argument 'order' and the dedicated section in the help page for more information.

i.equal

Character scalar, defaults to " $=$ " when tex = TRUE and " = " otherwise. Only affects factor variables created with the function i, tells how the variable should be linked to its value. For example if you have the Species factor from the iris data set, by default the display of the variable is Species = Setosa, etc. If i.equal = ": " the display becomes Species: Setosa.

depvar

Logical, default is TRUE. Whether a first line containing the dependent variables should be shown.

style.df

An object created by the function style.df It represents the style of the data frame returned (if tex = FALSE), see the documentation of style.df.

group

A list. The list elements should be vectors of regular expressions. For each elements of this list: A new line in the table is created, all variables that are matched by the regular expressions are discarded (same effect as the argument drop) and TRUE or FALSE will appear in the model cell, depending on whether some of the previous variables were found in the model. Example: group=list("Controls: personal traits"=c("gender", "height", "weight")) will create an new line with "Controls: personal traits" in the leftmost cell, all three variables gender, height and weight are discarded, TRUE appearing in each model containing at least one of the three variables (the style of TRUE/FALSE is governed by the argument yesNo). You can control the placement of the new row by using 1 or 2 special characters at the start of the row name. The meaning of these special characters are: 1) "^": coef., "-": fixed-effect, "_": stats, section; 2) "^": 1st, "_": last, row. For example: group=list("_^Controls"=stuff) will place the line at the top of the 'stats' section, and using group=list("^_Controls"=stuff) will make the row appear at the bottom of the coefficients section. For details, see the dedicated section.

extralines

A vector, a list or a one sided formula. The list elements should be either a vector representing the value of each cell, a list of the form list("item1" = #item1, "item2" = #item2, etc), or a function. This argument can be many things, please have a look at the dedicated help section; a simplified description follows. For each elements of this list: A new line in the table is created, the list name being the row name and the vector being the content of the cells. Example: extralines=list("Sub-sample"=c("<20 yo", "all", ">50 yo")) will create an new line with "Sub-sample" in the leftmost cell, the vector filling the content of the cells for the three models. You can control the placement of the new row by using 1 or 2 special characters at the start of the row name. The meaning of these special characters are:

"^": coef., "-": fixed-effect, "_": stats, section;
"^": 1st, "_": last, row. For example: extralines=list("__Controls"=stuff) will place the line at the bottom of the stats section, and using extralines=list("^^Controls"=stuff) will make the row appear at the top of the 'coefficients' section. For details, see the dedicated section. You can use .() instead of list().

fixef.group

Logical scalar or list (default is NULL). If equal to TRUE, then all fixed-effects always appearing jointly in models will be grouped in one row. If a list, its elements must be character vectors of regular expressions and the list names will be the row names. For ex. fixef.group=list("Dates fixed-effects"="Month|Day") will remove the "Month" and "Day" fixed effects from the display and replace them with a single row named "Dates fixed-effects". You can monitor the placement of the new row with two special characters telling where to place the row within a section: first in which section it should appear: "^" (coef.), "-" (fixed-effects), or "_" (stat.) section; then whether the row should be "^" (first), or "_" (last). These two special characters must appear first in the row names. Please see the dedicated section

drop.section

Character vector which can be of length 0 (i.e. equal to NULL). Can contain the values "coef", "fixef", "slopes" or "stats". It would drop, respectively, the coefficients section, fixed-effects section, the variables with varying slopes section or the fit statistics section.

poly_dict

Character vector, default is c("", " square", " cube"). When raw polynomials (x^2, etc) are used, the variables are automatically renamed and poly_dict rules the display of the power. For powers greater than the number of elements of the vector, the value displayed is $^{pow}$ in Latex and ^ pow in the R console.

postprocess.df

A function that will postprocess.tex the resulting data.frame. Only when tex = FALSE. By default it is equal to NULL, meaning that there is no postprocessing. When tex = TRUE, see the argument postprocess.tex.

fit_format

Character scalar, default is "__var__". Only used in the presence of IVs. By default the endogenous regressors are named fit_varname in the second stage. The format of the endogenous regressor to appear in the table is governed by fit_format. For instance, by default, the prefix "fit_" is removed, leading to only varname to appear. If fit_format = "$\\\\hat{__var__$"}, then "$\\hat{varname$"} will appear in the table.

coef.just

(DF only.) Either ".", "(", "l", "c" or "r", default is NULL. How the coefficients should be justified. If NULL then they are right aligned if se.below = FALSE and aligned to the dot if se.below = TRUE. The keywords stand respectively for dot-, parenthesis-, left-, center- and right-aligned.

highlight

List containing coefficients to highlight. Highlighting is of the form .("options1" = "coefs1", "options2" = "coefs2", etc). The coefficients to be highlighted can be written in three forms: 1) row, eg "x1" will highlight the full row of the variable x1; 2) cells, use '@' after the coefficient name to give the column, it accepts ranges, eg "x1@2, 4-6, 8" will highlight only the columns 2, 4, 5, 6, and 8 of the variable x1; 3) range, by giving the top-left and bottom-right values separated with a semi-colon, eg "x1@2 ; x3@5" will highlight from the column 2 of x1 to the 5th column of x3. Coefficient names are partially matched, use a '%' first to refer to the original name (before dictionary) and use '@' first to use a regular expression. You can add a vector of row/cell/range. The options are a comma-separated list of items. By default the highlighting is done with a frame (a thick box) around the coefficient, use 'rowcol' to highlight with a row color instead. Here are the other options: 'se' to highlight the standard-errors too; 'square' to have a square box (instead of rounded); 'thick1' to 'thick6' to monitor the width of the box; 'sep0' to 'sep9' to monitor the inner spacing. Finally the remaining option is the color: simply add an R color (it must be a valid R color!). You can use "color!alpha" with "alpha" a number between 0 to 100 to change the alpha channel of the color.

To be able to use use the highlighting feature, you need the following lines in your latex preamble: \\usepackage{tikz} and \\usetikzlibrary{matrix, shapes, arrows, fit, tikzmark}

coef.style

Named list containing styles to be applied to the coefficients. It must be of the form .("style1" = "coefs1", "style2" = "coefs2", etc). The style must contain the string ":coef:" (or ":coef_se:" to style both the coefficient and its standard-error). The string :coef: will be replaced verbatim by the coefficient value. For example use "\\textbf{:coef:}" to put the coefficient in bold. Note that markdown markup is enabled so "**:coef:**" would also put it in bold. The coefficients to be styled can be written in three forms: 1) row, eg "x1" will style the full row of the variable x1; 2) cells, use '@' after the coefficient name to give the column, it accepts ranges, eg "x1@2, 4-6, 8" will style only the columns 2, 4, 5, 6, and 8 of the variable x1; 3) range, by giving the top-left and bottom-right values separated with a semi-colon, eg "x1@2 ; x3@5" will style from the column 2 of x1 to the 5th column of x3. Coefficient names are partially matched, use a '%' first to refer to the original name (before dictionary) and use '@' first to use a regular expression. You can add a vector of row/cell/range.

export

Character scalar giving the path to a PNG file to be created, default is NULL. If provided, the Latex table will be converted to PNG and copied to the export location. Note that for this option to work you need a working distribution of pdflatex, imagemagick and ghostscript, or the R packages tinytex and pdftools.

page.width

Character scalar equal to 'fit' (default), 'a4' or 'us'; or a single Latex measure (like '17cm') or a double one (like "21, 2cm"). Only used when the Latex table is to be viewed (view = TRUE), exported (export != NULL) or displayed in Rmarkdown (markdown != NULL). It represents the text width of the page in which the Latex table will be inserted. By default, 'fit', the page fits exactly the table (i.e. text width = table width). If 'a4' or 'us', two times 2cm is removed from the page width to account for margins. Providing a page width and a margin width, like in "17in, 1in", enables a correct display of the argument adjustbox. Note that the margin width represent the width of a single side margin (and hence will be doubled).

div.class

Character scalar, default is "etable". Only used in Rmarkdown documents when markdown = TRUE. The table in an image format is embedded in a <div> container, and that container is of class div.class.

caption

(Tex only.) Character scalar. The caption of the Latex table.

label

(Tex only.) Character scalar. The label of the Latex table.

float

(Tex only.) Logical. By default, if the argument caption or label is provided, it is set to TRUE. Otherwise, it is set to FALSE.

style.tex

An object created by the function style.tex. It represents the style of the Latex table, see the documentation of style.tex.

notes

(Tex only.) Character vector. If provided, a "notes" section will be added at the end right after the end of the table, containing the text of this argument. If it is a vector, it will be collapsed with new lines. If tpt = TRUE, the behavior is different: each element of the vector is an item. If the first element of the vector starts with "@", then it will be included verbatim, and in case of tpt = TRUE, right before the first item. If that element is provided, it will replace the value defined in style.tex(notes.intro) or style.tex(notes.tpt.intro).

placement

(Tex only.) Character string giving the position of the float in Latex. Default is "htbp". It must consist of only the characters 'h', 't', 'b', 'p', 'H' and '!'. Reminder: h: here; t: top; b: bottom; p: float page; H: definitely here; !: prevents Latex to look for other positions. Note that it can be equal to the empty string (and you'll get the default placement).

postprocess.tex

A function that will postprocess the character vector defining the latex table. Only when tex = TRUE. By default it is equal to NULL, meaning that there is no postprocessing. When tex = FALSE, see the argument postprocess.df. See details.

tpt

(Tex only.) Logical scalar, default is FALSE. Whether to use the threeparttable environment. If so, the notes will be integrated into the tablenotes environment.

arraystretch

(Tex only.) A numeric scalar, default is NULL. If provided, the command \\renewcommand*{\\arraystretch{x}} is inserted, replacing x by the value of arraystretch. The changes are specific to the current table and do not affect the rest of the document.

adjustbox

(Tex only.) A logical, numeric or character scalar, default is NULL. If not NULL, the table is inserted within the adjustbox environment. By default the options are width = 1\\textwidth, center (if TRUE). A numeric value changes the value before \\textwidth. You can also add a character of the form "x tw" or "x th" with x a number and where tw (th) stands for text-width (text-height). Finally any other character value is passed verbatim as an adjustbox option.

fontsize

(Tex only.) A character scalar, default is NULL. Can be equal to tiny, scriptsize, footnotesize, small, normalsize, large, or Large. The change affect the table only (and not the rest of the document).

tabular

(Tex only.) Character scalar equal to "normal" (default), "*" or "X". Represents the type of tabular environment to use: either tabular, tabular* or tabularx.

meta

(Tex only.) A one-sided formula that shall contain the following elements: date or time, sys, author, comment and call. Default is NULL. This argument is a shortcut to controlling the meta information that can be displayed in comments before the table. Typically if the element is in the formula, it means that the argument will be equal to TRUE. Example: meta = ~time+call is equivalent to meta.time = TRUE and meta.call = TRUE. The "author" and "comment" elements are a bit special. Using meta = ~author("Mark") is equivalent to meta.author = "Mark" while meta=~author is equiv. to meta.author = TRUE. The "comment" must be used with a character string inside: meta = ~comment("this is a comment"). The order in the formula controls the order of appearance of the meta elements. It also has precedence over the meta.XX arguments.

meta.time

(Tex only.) Either a logical scalar (default is FALSE) or "time" or "date". Whether to include the time (if TRUE or "time") or the date (if "date") of creation of the table in a comment right before the table.

meta.author

(Tex only.) A logical scalar (default is FALSE) or a character vector. If TRUE then the identity of the author (deduced from the system user in Sys.info()) is inserted in a comment right before the table. If a character vector, then it should contain author names that will be inserted as comments before the table, prefixed with "Created by:". For free-form comments see the argument meta.comment.

meta.sys

(Tex only.) A logical scalar, default is FALSE. Whether to include system information (from Sys.info()) in a comment right before the table.

meta.call

(Tex only.) Logical scalar, default is FALSE. If TRUE then the call to the function is inserted right before the table in a comment.

meta.comment

(Tex only.) A character vector containing free-form comments to be inserted right before the table.

view

Logical, default is FALSE. If TRUE, then the table generated in Latex by etable and then is displayed in the viewer pane. Note that for this option to work you need i) pdflatex or the R package tinytex, ii) imagemagick and ghostscript, or the R package pdftools. All three software must be installed and on the path.

markdown

Character scalar giving the location of a directory, or a logical scalar. Default is NULL. This argument only works in Rmarkdown documents, when knitting the document. If provided: two behaviors depending on context. A) if the output document is Latex, the table is exported in Latex. B) if the output document is not Latex, the table will be exported to PNG at the desired location and inserted in the document via a markdown link. If equal to TRUE, the default location of the PNGs is a temporary folder for R > 4.0.0, or to "images/etable/" for earlier versions.

tex

Logical: whether the results should be a data.frame or a Latex table. By default, this argument is TRUE if the argument file (used for exportation) is not missing; it is equal to FALSE otherwise.

view.cache

Logical, default is TRUE. Only used when view = TRUE. Whether the PNGs of the tables should be cached.

reset

(setFixest_etable only.) Logical, default is FALSE. If TRUE, this will reset all the default values that were already set by the user in previous calls.

save

Either a logical or equal to "reset". Default is FALSE. If TRUE then the value is set permanently at the project level, this means that if you restart R, you will still obtain the previously saved defaults. This is done by writing in the ".Renviron" file, located in the project's working directory, hence we must have write permission there for this to work, and only works with Rstudio. If equal to "reset", the default at the project level is erased. Since there is writing in a file involved, permission is asked to the user.

x

An object returned by etable.

type

Character scalar equal to 'pdflatex' (default), 'magick', 'dir' or 'tex'. Which log file to report; if 'tex', the full source code of the tex file is returned, if 'dir': the directory of the log files is returned.

Value

If tex = TRUE, the lines composing the Latex table are returned invisibly while the table is directly prompted on the console.

If tex = FALSE, the data.frame is directly returned. If the argument file is not missing, the data.frame is printed and returned invisibly.

Details

The function esttex is equivalent to the function etable with argument tex = TRUE.

The function esttable is equivalent to the function etable with argument tex = FALSE.

To display the table, you will need the Latex package booktabs which contains the \\toprule, \\midrule and \\bottomrule commands.

You can permanently change the way your table looks in Latex by using setFixest_etable. The following vignette gives an example as well as illustrates how to use the style and postprocessing functions: Exporting estimation tables.

When the argument postprocess.tex is not missing, two additional tags will be included in the character vector returned by etable: "%start:tab\\n" and "%end:tab\\n". These can be used to identify the start and end of the tabular and are useful to insert code within the table environment.

Functions

esttable(): Exports the results of multiple fixest estimations in a Latex table.
esttex(): Exports the results of multiple fixest estimations in a Latex table.

How does `digits` handle the number of decimals displayed?

The default display of decimals is the outcome of an algorithm. Let's take the example of digits = 3 which "kind of" requires 3 significant digits to be displayed.

For numbers greater than 1 (in absolute terms), their integral part is always displayed and the number of decimals shown is equal to digits minus the number of digits in the integral part. This means that 12.345 will be displayed as 12.3. If the number of decimals should be 0, then a single decimal is displayed to suggest that the number is not whole. This means that 1234.56 will be displayed as 1234.5. Note that if the number is whole, no decimals are shown.

For numbers lower than 1 (in absolute terms), the number of decimals displayed is equal to digits except if there are only 0s in which case the first significant digit is shown. This means that 0.01234 will be displayed as 0.012 (first rule), and that 0.000123 will be displayed as 0.0001 (second rule).

Arguments keep, drop and order

The arguments keep, drop and order use regular expressions. If you are not aware of regular expressions, I urge you to learn it, since it is an extremely powerful way to manipulate character strings (and it exists across most programming languages).

For example drop = "Wind" would drop any variable whose name contains "Wind". Note that variables such as "Temp:Wind" or "StrongWind" do contain "Wind", so would be dropped. To drop only the variable named "Wind", you need to use drop = "^Wind$" (with "^" meaning beginning, resp. "$" meaning end, of the string => this is the language of regular expressions).

Although you can combine several regular expressions in a single character string using pipes, drop also accepts a vector of regular expressions.

You can use the special character "!" (exclamation mark) to reverse the effect of the regular expression (this feature is specific to this function). For example drop = "!Wind" would drop any variable that does not contain "Wind".

You can use the special character "%" (percentage) to make reference to the original variable name instead of the aliased name. For example, you have a variable named "Month6", and use a dictionary dict = c(Month6="June"). Thus the variable will be displayed as "June". If you want to delete that variable, you can use either drop="June", or drop="%Month6" (which makes reference to its original name).

The argument order takes in a vector of regular expressions, the order will follow the elements of this vector. The vector gives a list of priorities, on the left the elements with highest priority. For example, order = c("Wind", "!Inter", "!Temp") would give highest priorities to the variables containing "Wind" (which would then appear first), second highest priority is the variables not containing "Inter", last, with lowest priority, the variables not containing "Temp". If you had the following variables: (Intercept), Temp:Wind, Wind, Temp you would end up with the following order: Wind, Temp:Wind, Temp, (Intercept).

The argument `extralines`

The argument extralines adds well... extra lines to the table. It accepts either a list, or a one-sided formula.

For each line, you can define the values taken by each cell using 4 different ways:

a vector, 2) a list, 3) a function, and 4) a formula.
If a vector, it should represent the values taken by each cell. Note that if the length of the vector is smaller than the number of models, its values are recycled across models, but the length of the vector is required to be a divisor of the number of models.
If a list, it should be of the form list("item1" = nb1, "item2" = nb2, etc). Numbers given as integers represent column positions. For exemple: list("A" = 2L, "B" = 3L) leads to c("", "A", "B").

Numbers in 'double' format (the default number format in R) represent spans. For example: list("A"=2, "B"=3) leads to c("A", "A", "B", "B", "B"). Note that if the number of items is 1, you don't need to add = 1. For example: list("A"=2, "B") is valid and leads to c("A", "A", "B"). The spans can be larger than the number of models (to fill all columns).

The resolution of spans or column positions is done from left to right. The spans always start at the rightmost unfilled column on the right. For example: list("A" = 2L, "B" = 2) lead to c("", "A", "B", "B"). Another example: list("B" = 3, "A" = 2L) leads to c("B", "A", "B").

Note that contrary to the vector (see point 1)) the values provided are not recycled, instead the right side is filled with empty columns. The only exception is when multiple VCOVs in the vcov argument leads to the repetition of models, and in that case the values are recycled accordingly (if that does make sense).

If a function, it will be applied to each model and should return a scalar (NA values returned are accepted).
If a formula, it must be one-sided and the elements in the formula must represent either extralines macros, either fit statistics (i.e. valid types of the function fitstat). One new line will be added for each element of the formula. To register extralines macros, you must first register them in extralines_register.

Finally, you can combine as many lines as wished by nesting them in a list. The names of the nesting list are the row titles (values in the leftmost cell). For example extralines = list(~r2, Controls = TRUE, Group = list("A"=2, "B")) will add three lines, the titles of which are "R2", "Controls" and "Group".

Controlling the placement of extra lines

The arguments group, extralines and fixef.group allow to add customized lines in the table. They can be defined via a list where the list name will be the row name. By default, the placement of the extra line is right after the coefficients (except for fixef.group, covered in the last paragraph). For instance, group = list("Controls" = "x[[:digit:]]") will create a line right after the coefficients telling which models contain the control variables.

But the placement can be customized. The previous example (of the controls) will be used for illustration (the mechanism for extralines and fixef.group is identical).

The row names accept 2 special characters at the very start. The first character tells in which section the line should appear: it can be equal to "^", "-", or "_", meaning respectively the coefficients, the fixed-effects and the statistics section (which typically appear at the top, mid and bottom of the table). The second one governs the placement of the new line within the section: it can be equal to "^", meaning first line, or "_", meaning last line.

Let's have some examples. Using the previous example, writing "_^Controls" would place the new line at the top of the statistics section. Writing "-_Controls" places it as the last row of the fixed-effects section; "^^Controls" at the top row of the coefficients section; etc...

The second character is optional, the default placement being in the bottom. This means that "_Controls" would place it at the bottom of the statistics section.

The placement in fixef.group is defined similarly, only the default placement is different. Its default placement is at the top of the fixed-effects section.

Escaping special Latex characters

By default on all instances (with the notable exception of the elements of style.tex) special Latex characters are escaped. This means that caption="Exports in million $." will be exported as "Exports in million \\$.": the dollar sign will be escaped. This is true for the following characters: &, $, %, _, ^ and #.

Note, importantly, that equations are NOT escaped. This means that caption="Functional form $a_i \\times x^b$, variation in %." will be displayed as: "Functional form $a_i \\times x^b$, variation in \\%.": only the last percentage will be escaped.

If for some reason you don't want the escaping to take place, the arguments headers and extralines are the only ones allowing that. To disable escaping, add the special token ":tex:" in the row names. Example: in headers=list(":tex:Row title"="weird & & %\\n tex stuff\\\\"), the elements will be displayed verbatim. Of course, since it can easily ruin your table, it is only recommended to super users.

Markdown markup

Within anything that is Latex-escaped (see previous section), you can use a markdown-style markup to put the text in italic and/or bold. Use *text*, **text** or ***text*** to put some text in, respectively, italic (with \\textit), bold (with \\textbf) and italic-bold.

The markup can be escaped by using an backslash first. For example "***This: \\***, are three stars***" will leave the three stars in the middle untouched.
