In this argument one can use a variable that must also be listed in countVars. This variable is then used to compute the magnitute tables by the given 0/1 binary variable. For an example see ?perturbTable.countVars in perturbTable() which allows to additionally tabulate any number or 0/1 variables. For such variables. In such case, the record-keys of non-contribution units are set to 0 prior to the lookup in the perturbation tableresults() and replaced it with new methods ck_freq_table() and ck_cont_table() that should be used to query specific tables from the output of perturbTable()perturbTable(), ck_freq_table() and ck_cont_table()feature: new dynamic way to specify hierarchies for tables, for an example see ?ck_manage_hierarchies. This functionality will eventually also find its way to sdcTable
verbose argumentspTable) can now be specified in two different formats. The (default) way is to specify it as described in the original ABS-paper Methodology for the Automatic Confidentialisation of Statistical Outputs from Remote Servers at the Australian Bureau of Statistics (Thompson, Broadfoot, Elazar). An alternative way is to provide the perturbation tables for count tables in the “destatis”-format. ck_create_pTable(type="destatis") returns an exemplary pTable in this format. In the future, such pTables will likely be generated from another package. As the requirements regarding record keys are different in the following lookup-approach, we have already implemented some (basic) checks for validity of record keys when they are already available in the microdata used in ck_create_input().
