How to use {pointblank} to understand, validate, and document your data

How to use {pointblank} to understand, validate, and document your data - Rich Iannone Abstract: This workshop will focus on the data quality and data documentation workflows that the pointblank package makes possible. We will use functions that allow us to: (1) quickly understand a new dataset (2) validate tabular data using rules that are based on our understanding of the data (3) fully document a table by describing its variables and other important details. The pointblank package was created to scale from small validation problems (“Let’s make certain this table fits my expectations before moving on”) to very large (“Let’s validate these 35 database tables every day and ensure data quality is maintained”) and we’ll delve into all sorts of data quality scenarios so you’ll be comfortable using this package in your organization. Data documentation is seemingly and unfortunately less common in organizations (maybe even less than the practice of data validation). We’ll learn all about how this doesn’t have to be a tedious chore. The pointblank package allows you to create informative and beautiful data documentation that will help others understand what’s in all those tables that are so vital to an organization.

Virtual Day AMA with Rich Iannone | posit::conf(2025)

Libby Heeren from the Data Science Hangout hosts an AMA (ask me anything) session with Rich Iannone, a software engineer at Posit. Rich fielded questions from participants about everything from his journey in open source development to the guitars on the wall behind him. He was asked about his very first package, talked about the importance of personal projects for career growth, and described some of the differences between CRAN and PyPI as package repositories/distributors. Rich emphasized the value of community engagement and encouraged data newcomers to contribute to open source. He also shared his interests in niche packages (and hiding easter eggs in his open source code!) and the challenges of transitioning personal projects to public ones

Making Things Nice in Python (Rich Iannone, Posit) | posit::conf(2025)

Making Things Nice in Python Speaker(s): Rich Iannone Abstract: When working on the Great Tables and Pointblank Python packages, we've tried to make them 'nice'. These packages give you a lot of convenient options, and a large volume of docs and examples. In the Python world, this might be received differently than it would be in R. Whether it was integrating Polars selectors in Great Tables or accepting a multitude of DataFrames and DB tables in Pointblank, these design choices can be seen as surprising things to established Python developers. However, I argue it's good to be doing this! People are benefitting from these approaches. I'll share a few of these developer stories with the takeaway being that Python packages could and should pay attention to good user experience. posit::conf(2025) Subscribe to posit::conf updates: https://posit.co/about/subscription-management/

Great Tables: Make beautiful, publication quality tables in Python | Rich Iannone & Michael Chow

Tables are undeniably useful for data work. We have many great DataFrame libraries available in Python, and they give us flexibility in terms of manipulating data at will, but what happens when presenting tables to others? It's nice to display tables. Tables can efficiently carry information, just like plots do, and at times it is the better way of presenting data. Indeed, it is time to bridge the divide between raw DataFrame output and wondrously structured tables suitable for publication. Now, let us turn our attention to the state of 'display tables' in 2024. Let us go over what comprises key components for building effective information displays in tables. It may surprise one how new a well-crafted table can be hewn. We'll take a look at the combinations of Python packages that fit together to make this important task possible, and marvel together at the tabular results they can provide!

Eric Nantz, Alex Lauer, Rich Iannone - A Pivotal Year of Milestones in R Consortium Working Groups

A Pivotal Year of Milestones: R Submissions Working Group and R Tables for Regulatory Submissions updates - Eric Nantz, Alexandra Lauer, and Rich Iannone Resources mentioned in the presentation: - R Submissions Working Group: https://rconsortium.github.io/submissions-wg/ - R Tables eBook: https://rconsortium.github.io/rtrs-wg Abstract: Within the life sciences industry, Shiny has enabled tremendous innovations to produce web interfaces as frontends to sophisticated analyses, dynamic visualizations, and automation of clinical reporting across drug development. While industry sponsors have widely adopted Shiny as part of their analytics and reporting toolset, a relatively unexplored frontier has been the inclusion of a Shiny application inside a clinical submission package to regulatory agencies such as the FDA. The R Consortium R Submissions Working Group has continued the positive momentum of previous submission pilots to achieve substantial progress in this domain. In this talk, we will share the development journey of the working group’s Pilot 2 successful submission of a Shiny application to the FDA, along with the progress on the use of novel technologies such as Linux containers and web assembly to bundle a Shiny application into a self-contained package, facilitating a smoother process of both transferring and executing the application. The R Consortium’s R Tables for Regulatory Submissions (RTRS) Working Group has released the first edition of (Tables in Clinical Trials with R)[ https//rconsortium.github.io/rtrs-wg/] as a free and openly accessible ebook. The book contributes to the development of a theory of displaying tabular information by identifying a small number of table archetypes that may be used to generate the most common tables employed in clinical submissions. Chapters in the book demonstrate how these tables may be rendered in different R Packages including flextable, gt, rtables (with and without tern), tables, tfrmt and tidytlg. All tables are generated from CDISC-compliant data. Comparing the code showcases the robustness of R for aggregating and displaying tabular information and illuminates the flexibility and design tradeoff of the various R packages. The talk will discuss the motivation for the book, present the idea of table archetypes, show some representative tables, and make the case for R as a superb language for analyzing clinical trial data. The RTRS working group expects Tables in Clinical Trials with R to become a primary resource of clinical programming teams. Speaker Bios: Eric Nantz is a director within the statistical innovation center at Eli Lilly and Company, creating analytical pipelines and capabilities of advanced statistical methodologies for clinical design used in multiple phases of development. Outside of his day job, Eric is passionate about connecting with and showcasing the brilliant R community in multiple ways. You may recognize his voice from the R-Podcast that he launched in 2012. Eric is also the creator of the Shiny Developer Series where he interviews authors of Shiny-related packages and practitioners developing applications, as well as sharing his own R and Shiny adventures via livestreams on his Twitch channel. In addition, Eric is a curator for the RWeekly project and co-host of the RWeekly Highlights podcast which accompanies every issue. Alexandra Lauer is a Senior Principal Statistical Analyst at Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany, with a background in mathematics. She specializes in bridging psychometrics and biostatistics, with a primary focus on Health-Related Quality of Life evaluations. Alex is an R enthusiast, co-leading the Merck-internal R User Group. Rich Iannone: My background is in programming, data analysis, and data visualization. Much of my current software engineering work on R packages is intended to make working with data easier. I truly believe that with the right approach, tools like these can be both powerful and easy to use. Presented at the 2023 R/Pharma Conference (October 26, 2023)

Open Source Chat - {gt} with Rich Iannone

Join Rich Iannone, maintainer of the {gt} package, as he takes questions from the community about the latest in {gt} v0.7.0, and building great looking data display tables with R. Key Resources: ⬡ Get started with {gt} - https://gt.rstudio.com Reach out: 38:48 - How do I ask Rich about {gt}, feature requests, bug reports, how to solve a problem via {gt}? Rich and the {gt} team would love to hear from you. ⬡ Feature requests & bug reports with GitHub Issues, https://github.com/rstudio/gt/issues ⬡ GitHub Discussions, https://github.com/rstudio/gt/discussions ⬡ Ask the community a question, https://community.rstudio.com/tag/gt ⬡ Follow {gt} on Twitter, feel free to reach out and ask questions, https://twitter.com/gt_package Timestamps Rich Iannone Introduction. 03:52 - Why {gt}? - What does {gt} bring to the table? Why so much effort into static, data display tables? 05:50 - Why open source? Why is {gt} open source and why have you dedicated your career to develop open source software? 08:30 - {gt} v0.7.0, Tell us about those new vector formatting functions in {gt}. Why did you include them? Could you show us some examples? {gt}'s vector formatting functions help you customize the styling, look and feel of your values. Converting the output values R gives you, and making them look exactly the way you want them to can be tricky. A lot of work was put into {gt} to give nice value formatting options. You can now access all these outside of a gt table; e.g. in text, in a plot, etc. 22:35 - Could you provide an example or two with the new styling function called `opt_stylize()`? What kinds of tables can you make with that? Can you extend that with your own tweaks? 28:15 - Can you make your own themes and share them? "How do I create my own custom theme for my table? A theme I can share with the rest of my organization?" 31:58 - What is the distinction between tab_options and the opt_* functions? Why would a function be in opt_* and not tab_options? 34:00 - sub_values() function, to find and replace certain values in your table. 36:50 - What is the current support for latex in {gt} at the moment? "Personally, I much prefer HTML, but for scientific publications, we are asked to provide a LaTeX file." 42:50 - "In my work, I often produce A4 output in PDF, mainly with ggplot2 content. It would be nice to be able to combine ggplot + gt tables in a similar way {patchwork} works. Having the plot and the table next to it is very useful sometimes." 44:30 - Interactive Tables with {gt}? 47:45 - "Any plans to make applying of same style to several columns easier? Unless I'm mistaken, the locations argument of tab_style requires one to specify an individual column. See here: https://gt.rstudio.com/reference/tab_style.html#examples." Yes, supply a vector of columns or use tidyselect functions. 49:15 - "Excel output with {gt}? Would be a huge improvement. I often have to produce tabular output that can be easily reused. Usually it means Excel tables. So far I have mainly done this with Python and openpyxl or PyWin32 (through COM). A simple solution in R would be great." 50:20 - Support for additional output formats with {gt}? Excel, PowerPoint, etc.? 50:25 - {pointplank}, a package to methodically validate your data whether in the form of data frames or as database tables., https://rich-iannone.github.io/pointblank/. Check out the workshop materials at https://github.com/rich-iannone/pointblank-workshop 55:50 - "Are there ways to have grouped rows? I mean when repeated rows have same characters can we merge them to one?" 58:00 - "Is there an ability to add 'battleship coordinates' (e.g. column letters & row numbers) to a gt object? This is a standard for table across my org and I’ve been trying to figure out how to implement it." 59:59 "Do you have suggestions or examples of building out & applying corporate formatting to gt tables (e.g. adding a company logo, company colors, etc.)?" 01:04:30 - "With PDF/LaTeX output for wide tables, it does not shrink the table."

Rich Iannone || New features in {gt} 0.6.0! || RStudio

00:00 Introduction 00:18 sub_missing() 03:51 Markdown formatting in sub_missing() 04:51 sub_zero() 07:34 sub_small_vals() 13:08 sub_large_vals() 16:25 final thoughts A new version of the R package {gt} has been released! We are now at version `0.6.0` and there are now even more features that'll make your display/summary tables look and work much, much better. Let's run through some of the bigger changes and see the benefits they can bring! New functions for substituting cell data We now have four new functions that allow you to make precise substitutions of cell values with perhaps something more meaningful. They all begin with `sub_` and that's short for substitution! sub_missing() (formerly known as fmt_missing()) Here's something that's both old and new. The sub_missing() function (for replacing NAs with... something) is new, but it's essentially replacing a function that is old (fmt_missing()). The missing_text replacement of "---" is actually an em dash (the longest of the dash family). This can be downgraded to an en dash with "--" or we can go further with "-", giving us a hyphen replacement. Or, you can use another piece of text. If you're using and loving fmt_missing(), it's okay! You'll probably receive a warning about it when you upgrade to {gt} 0.6.0 though. Best to just substitute fmt_missing() with sub_missing() anyway! sub_zero() The sub_zero() function allows for substituting zero values in the table body. sub_small_vals() Next up is the sub_small_vals() function. Ever have really, really small values and really just want to say they are small? With sub_small_vals() we can reformat smaller numbers using the default threshold of 0.01. Small and negative values can also be handled but they are handled specially by the sign parameter. Setting that to "-" will format only the small, negative values. You don't have to settle with the default threshold value or the default replacement pattern (in small_pattern). This can be changed and the "x" in small_pattern (which uses the threshold value) can even be omitted. sub_large_vals() Okay, there's one more substitution function to cover, and this one's for all the large values in your table: sub_large_vals(). With this you can substitute what you might consider as too large values in the table body. Large negative values can also be handled but they are handled specially by the sign parameter. Setting that to "-" will format only the large values that are negative. You don't have to settle with the default threshold value or the default replacement pattern (in large_pattern). This can be changed and the "x" in large_pattern (which uses the threshold value) can even be omitted. Final thoughts We are always trying to improve the gt package with a mix of big features (some examples: improving rendering, adding new families of functions) and numerous tiny features (like improving existing functions, clarifying documentation, etc.). It's hoped that the things delivered in gt 0.6.0 lead to improvements in how you create and present summary tables in R.

The gt philosophy: we can construct a wide variety of useful tables with a cohesive set of table parts. These include the table header, the stub, the column labels and spanner column labels, the table body, and the table footer. It all begins with table data (be it a tibble or a data frame). You then decide how to compose your gt table with the elements and formatting you need for the task at hand. Finally, the table is rendered by printing it at the console, including it in an R Markdown document, or exporting to a file using gtsave(). Currently, gt supports the HTML, LaTeX, and RTF output formats. The gt package is designed to be both straightforward yet powerful. The emphasis is on simple functions for the everyday display table needs.

Webinar Summary | Avoid Dashboard Fatigue | RStudio (2020)

0:00 Introduction 0:07 The Problem 1:05 The Solution 3:20 Real Life Success Stories 5:27 Demo (with code) Don't have an hour to watch a webinar? We've made a summary video that covers the main points of our "Avoid Dashboard Fatigue" webinar from Sean Lopp and Rich Iannone. The full webinar covered: Data science teams face a challenging task. Not only do they have to gain insight from data, they also have to persuade others to make decisions based on those insights. To close this gap, teams rely on tools like dashboards, apps, and APIs. But unfortunately data organizations can suffer from their own success - how many of those dashboards are viewed once and forgotten? Is a dashboard of dashboards really the right solution? And what about that pesky, precisely formatted Excel spreadsheet finance still wants every week? In this webinar, we’ll show you an easy way teams can solve these problems using proactive email notifications through the blastula and gt packages, and how RStudio pro products can be used to scale out those solutions for enterprise applications. Dynamic emails are a powerful way to meet decision makers where they live - their inbox - while displaying exactly the results needed to influence decision-making. Best of all, these notifications are crafted with code, ensuring your work is still reproducible, durable, and credible. We’ll demonstrate how this approach provides solutions for data quality monitoring, detecting and alerting on anomalies, and can even automate routine (but precisely formatted) KPI reporting. Webinar materials: https://rstudio.com/resources/webinars/avoid-dashboard-fatigue/ About Sean: Sean has a degree in mathematics and statistics and worked as an analyst at the National Renewable Energy Lab before making the switch to customer success at RStudio. In his spare time he skis and mountain bikes and is a proud Colorado native. About Rich: My background is in programming, data analysis, and data visualization. Much of my current work involves a combination of data acquisition, statistical programming, tools development, and visualizing the results. I love creating software that helps people accomplish things. I regularly update several R package projects (all available on GitHub). One such package is called DiagrammeR and it's great for creating network graphs and performing analyses on the graphs. One of the big draws for open-source development is the collaboration that comes with the process. I encourage anyone interested to ask questions, make recommendations, or even help out if so inclined!

Rich Iannone | Introducing the gt package | RStudio (2019)

With the gt package, anyone can make great-looking display tables. Though the package is still early in development, you can do some really great things with it right now! I'll walk through a few examples that touch upon the more common table-making use cases. These will include features like adding table parts, integrating footnotes, styling/transforming table cells, using tables in R Markdown documents, and even including gt tables in email messages.
