Sorts a data set conditionally in a cross table. This can be helpful to get a sense of the time and scope conditions of a data set. Note, if used with a data set that has multiple observations on the id-time unit, the function automatically aggregates this information using the mean.

overview_crosstab(dat, cond1, cond2, threshold1, threshold2, id, time)

## Arguments

dat A data set object Variable that describes the first condition Variable that describes the second condition A threshold for cond1 A threshold for cond2 Scope (e.g., country codes or individual IDs) Time (e.g., time periods given by years, months, ...)

## Value

A data frame object that contains a summary of the data set that can later be converted to a 'LaTeX' output using overview_print

## Examples

data(toydata)
overview_crosstab(
dat = toydata,
cond1 = gdp,
cond2 = population,
threshold1 = 25000,
threshold2 = 27000,
id = ccode,
time = year
)
