Process numeric LaTeX or HTML values.

This takes formatted strings as produced by format from numeric values, and modifies them to LaTeX or HTML code that retains the spacing, and renders minus signs properly. The default formatting in tabular uses this to maintain proper alignment.

Usage

latexNumeric(chars, minus = TRUE, leftpad = TRUE, rightpad = TRUE, mathmode = TRUE)
htmlNumeric(chars, minus = TRUE, leftpad = TRUE, rightpad = TRUE)

Arguments

chars

A character vector of numeric values.

minus

Whether to pad cases with no minus sign with spacing of the same width.

leftpad,rightpad

Whether to pad cases that have leading or trailing blanks with spacing matching a digit width per space.

mathmode

Whether to wrap the result in dollar signs, so LaTeX renders minus signs properly.

Value

A character vector of the same length as chars, with modifications to render properly in LaTeX.

Examples

latexNumeric(format(c(1.1,-1,10,-10)))
#> [1] "$\\phantom{0}\\phantom{-}1.1$" "$\\phantom{0}-1.0$"           
#> [3] "$\\phantom{-}10.0$"            "$-10.0$"                      
htmlNumeric(format(c(1.1,-1,10,-10)))
#> [1] "  1.1" " −1.0"  " 10.0"       
#> [4] "−10.0"
