Format an effect estimate and confidence interval as text

A small helper for building the label of a geom_forest_text() column, producing strings such as "1.40 (0.65 to 3.00)".

Usage

format_effect(estimate, ci_lower, ci_upper, digits = 2, sep = " to ")

Arguments

estimate, ci_lower, ci_upper

Numeric vectors of equal length.

digits

Number of decimal places. Default 2.

sep

Separator between the confidence limits. Default " to ".

Value

A character vector; NA estimates become empty strings.

Examples

format_effect(c(1.4, 0.9), c(0.65, 0.6), c(3.0, 1.35))
#> [1] "1.40 (0.65 to 3.00)" "0.90 (0.60 to 1.35)"
