Convert table data to inline list
as_inline(data, tbl_variables, tbl_values)
| data | a data frame. |
|---|---|
| tbl_variables | column names that will be used to form groups in the table |
| tbl_values | column names that contains table values. |
a list of tbl_values values for each permutation of tbl_variables
variables in tbl_variables that have missing values will be
have their missing values converted into an explicit category named
variable_missing, where 'variable' is the name of the variable.
