messed up output

[MarieAgosta]

With this line of code:

library(dplyr)
library(stargazer)
age <- anes$dem_age_r_x %>% as.data.frame()
#stargazer(age, type = "text", summary = TRUE) for seeing #what the table looks #like, because without specifying text it just looks like the code for output as #it will eventually appear in a knitted document stargazer
(age, summary = TRUE)
stargazer(age, summary = TRUE)

We get this output before our table. I have been googling away as to why and how to correct it but I just don’t understand. Could you please help me?

Hey Marie -- so you want to get rid of the "attaching package" and "please cite as" messages?

In your r code chunk in your markdown document, try adding these messages:

```{r, message=F, warning=F, results ='asis'}

Message = F and Warning = F should suppress these types of messages from showing. Reults='asis' helps ensure the table is formatted correctly by Knittr. Does this help?

Thanks Tori! I appreciate the help. One more if you happen to know… how to stop a table from running off the page when using stargazer? It’s a pretty basic frequency table…

Thanks again,

Marie

A suggestion on the frequency table issue. One easy option is to choose a smaller font size (in stargazer you can choose font.size = 'tiny' for example.

Generally though, if the are running onto multiple pages with a frequency table it is better to think of a more effective way to visualise the data, e.g. a histogram or other chart.
