Coding style conventions

Following conventions apply to the easystats-ecosystem, to ensure that function and argument names as well as element names for return-values follow a consistent pattern across all packages.

Function names

Argument names

Element / Column names (for returned data frames)

  1. First letter of the column name is capital, unless (6) applies (example: Parameter).

  2. First letter of nouns is capital, unless (6) applies (example: ROPE_Percentage, Prior_Scale).

  3. Using underscore rather than camelCase to separate words (example: CI_high).

  4. Multiple words: common/main part first and adjective/specifier/variational part after, unless (8) applies (example: Median_standardized, ROPE_percentage).

  5. Abbreviations: all uppercase (example: ESS, MCSE, ROPE).

  6. Keep conventions for reserved words (example: p, pd, Rhat).

  7. Adjectives / verbs: all lower case, unless (1) applies (example: high or low in CI_high or CI_low).

  8. In case of multiple occurrences of column names that indicate the same measure or content (like CI_low or SE), the common part is appended as suffix to the context specific part (example: CI_low and Eta2_partial_CI_low, and not CI_low and CI_low_Eta2_partial).

  9. The “squared” term in column names that refers to “common” statistics (Eta2, Chi2, Omega2, …) should be written as 2, not sq, squared or pétit-deux (example: Chi2, and not Chisq, Eta2, and not Eta_squared). This rule does not apply to function names.

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
