tidyrates

Lifecycle: experimental CRAN status R-CMD-check

The goal of tidyrates is to compute adjusted rates and other epidemiological indicators in a tidy way, wrapping functions from the epitools package.

Installation

You can install the development version of tidyrates from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("rfsaldanha/tidyrates")

Example

library(tidyrates)

head(fleiss_data)
#>   key age_group       name  value
#> 1  k1  Under 20 population 230061
#> 2  k1  Under 20     events    107
#> 3  k1     20-24 population 329449
#> 4  k1     20-24     events    141
#> 5  k1     25-29 population 114920
#> 6  k1     25-29     events     60

standard_pop <- tibble::tibble(
    age_group = c("Under 20", "20-24", "25-29", "30-34", "35-39", "40 and over"),
    population = c(63986.6, 186263.6, 157302.2, 97647.0, 47572.6, 12262.6)
  )
