## flextable: Functions for Tabular Reporting

### Description

The flextable package facilitates access to and manipulation of tabular reporting elements from R.

The documentation of functions can be opened with command `help(package = "flextable")`.

To learn more about flextable, start with the vignettes: `browseVignettes(package = "flextable")`.

`flextable()` function is producing flexible tables where each cell can contain several chunks of text with their own set of formatting properties (bold, font color, etc.). Function `display` lets customise text of cells.

`regulartable()` function has been written because the first one is ressource consumming. The main difference is that it is producing tables where cells can contain only one chunk of text with its own set of formatting properties. Function `set_formatter` is customizing text of cells.

regulartable is to be used in most of cases.

These two type of table DO NOT ACCEPT new lines in text.
