table1DDS {dsBase}

R Documentation

Creates 1-dimensional contingency tables

Description

This function generates a 1-dimensional table where potentially disclosive cells. (based on the set threshold) are replaced by a missing value ('NA').

Usage

table1DDS(xvect)

Arguments

xvect

a numerical vector with discrete values - usually a factor.

Details

It generates a 1-dimensional tables where valid (non-disclosive) 1-dimensional tables are defined as data from sources where no table cells have counts between 1 and the set threshold. When the ouput table is invalid all cells but the total count are replaced by missing values. Only the total count is visible on the table returned to the client site. A message is also returned with the 1-dimensional; the message says "invalid table - invalid counts present" if the table is invalid and 'valid table' otherwise.

Value

a list which contains two elements: 'table', the 1-dimensional table and 'message' a message which informs about the validity of the table.
