  • I’ve ran every bundled example from R 0.6.0 up to R 4.2.2 on R 4.2.2, and most examples still run

    You’re right, but you might need to at least be able to install the R version that was current at the time, because sometimes there are changes in base R as well. And installing an old version of R can be tricky, especially on Linux. But for these purposes, you could check out the newly released {rang} package: it makes it easy to build a Docker image with the right version of R and packages to run an older project: https://github.com/chainsawriot/rang

  • What type of table is this, and is there a way to do this in R?

    As for styling, I highly recommend the huxtable package. You can style rows, columns, and individual cells however you want. It uses dplyr pipelining, if you’re familiar with that, so it’s super intuitive to use too.

    I wrote a little R package to write tables. I knew what HTML tables and Word tables could do. I wrote the interface to use all those features. LaTeX nerds were super proud of their tables. Should be easy to reimplement the features in TeX, right?

    TeX is an abomination from hell.
