Tables

A figure rarely travels alone. The survival curve wants its numbers at risk, the manuscript wants its Table 1, and the trend plot reads better next to the counts behind it. This part covers the tables that accompany our figures, built with gt.

library(gt)

We use gt directly here. A companion hvtiRtables package – to give tables the same house treatment hvtiPlotR gives plots – is planned but not yet written, so treat these recipes as the current standard rather than the final one. Two chapters follow: publication summary tables (the Table 1 pattern), and the tables that pair with a specific figure, pulled straight from the same hv_*() object that drew it.
