Unable to create big tables about tangram HOT 11 CLOSED

This is an elusive bug I've been chasing for a good while. I don't think it's the number of variable but the variable name itself containing an underscore. Can you send the formula string you are using?

from tangram.

Also, what version are you using? The current CRAN release or from github?

from tangram.

My formula:
table3 <- tangram(group ~ eras_score[0] + eras_teaching_check[0] + preop_carb_check[0] + preop_diet_check[0] + preop_bowel_prep_check[0] + antibiotic_check[0] + dvt_ppx_check[0] + normothermia_check[0] + regional_anesthesia_check[0] + intraop_opioid_check[0] + intraop_fluids_check[0] + intraop_min_invasive_check[0] + intraop_ng_check[0] + intraop_drains_check[0] + postop_diet_check[0] + postop_ivf_check[0] + postop_mobilization_check[0] + postop_excessdrainremoval_check[0] + postop_adjunctive_check[0] + postop_antiemetic_check[0] + preop_carb_vol_norm[1] + preadmit_check[0] + preop_acetaminophen_check[0] + regional_block_check[0] + intraop_opioids[2] + intraop_ketamine_check[0] + intraop_dextamatomadine_check[0] + intraop_lidocaine_check[0] + intraop_anxiolytic_check[0] + intraop_steroids_check[0] + intraop_nsaids_check[0] + intraop_acetaminophen_check[0] + intraop_antiemetic_check[0] + ivf_crystalloid_rate[1] + ivf_colloid_rate[1] + ivf_blood_rate[1] + intraop_ogng_temp_check[0], data=allSingle, transform=my_percent) %>% del_col(2)

I'm using the latest from Github.

Okay, looking at it now.

As a workaround rbind() works with tangram objects.

I can't reproduce it. I suspect you have a hidden white space character hidden in the formula based on the error output you provided having a break in it. I expanded the definition of white space to include newlines and returns and pushed that up.

Install the latest and let me know what happens. If what I think is true then it will probably fail on not being able to access a variable due to the hidden character.

I've looked at the input in my text editor and there are no invisible characters. I even typed out the last variable added to the formula here:

table3 <- tangram(group ~ eras_score[0] + eras_teaching_check[0] + preop_carb_check[0] + preop_diet_check[0] + preop_bowel_prep_check[0] + antibiotic_check[0] + dvt_ppx_check[0] + normothermia_check[0] + regional_anesthesia_check[0] + intraop_opioid_check[0] + intraop_fluids_check[0] + intraop_min_invasive_check[0] + intraop_ng_check[0] + intraop_drains_check[0] + postop_diet_check[0] + postop_ivf_check[0] + postop_mobilization_check[0] + postop_excessdrainremoval_check[0] + postop_adjunctive_check[0] + postop_antiemetic_check[0] + anastomosis, data=allSingle, transform=my_percent) %>% del_col(2) and it errors out on anastomosis, which has no special characters at all. It works fine without anastomosis, but errors when it is added.

I found it! when calling as.character on a formula in R it's adding returns when it goes beyond a certain fixed size, i.e. it's not dependent on the width option. I added the \n and \r as ignored white space in the last patch I pushed and it seems to be working for me. I tested the patch and it solves the issue.

Sweet. Yeah, the bug was really weird because it didn't matter which variable but always seemed to error out around the 21st-24th variable. Figures it was related to something with a fixed size. Nice job!

I confirm. Latest github code works now on my code example!
