R package to convert SPSS syntax to R code

SPSS to R

A set of functions that takes SPSS syntax as input and outputs R commands to do the same analysis or data management tasks.

Current Features

• Read in Data
  • Get for sav files
  • Get for csv, txt, xls, xlsx files with get data.
• Data Manipulation
  • Sort Cases
• Descriptives
  • Aggregate
  • Correlations
  • Crosstab
  • Descriptives
  • Frequencies
  • Graphics
• Models
  • One sample t-test
  • Independent sample t-test
  • One-way ANOVA - with oneway routine

Upcoming Features

• Dataset commands
• Value Labels
• Further arguments for descriptives

spsstor's Issues

recode into different variables

is it possible to convert "recode into different variables" with this packages?

Function not found `setdecimal_to_r`

Hey!
Just tried to use this with a file that has the first line of
SET decimal dot.

When I try and use the spss_to_r function I get the following issue:

Error in setdecimal_to_r("SET decimal dot.", TRUE, FALSE) : 
  could not find function "setdecimal_to_r"

Is there a function that has not been uploaded?
Best,
Sarah

FYI - this is the SPSS file https://www.oecd.org/pisa/pisaproducts/PISA2012_SPSS_student.txt
