crosstab version 0.1.0 has been released!

- \<by Michael J. [removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid)\>
- [http://crosstab.rubyforge.org/](http://crosstab.rubyforge.org/)

## DESCRIPTION:

Crosstab is a library for generating formatted pivot tables.

## FEATURES:

- Input your data as an array of hashes
- Input a report layout, built using a Ruby DSL
- Outputs ASCII pivot tables suitable for fast reports
- Pretty fast: takes less than a second to process 1,000 records of  
data by a report with 100 rows and 10 columns.

## SYNOPSIS:

require ‘rubygems’  
require ‘crosstab’

data = [{:gender =\> “M”, :age =\> 1},  
{:gender =\> “F”, :age =\> 2},  
{:gender =\> “M”, :age =\> 3}]

my\_crosstab = crosstab data do  
table do  
title “Q.A Age:”  
group “18 - 54” do  
row “18 - 34”, :age =\> 1  
row “35 - 54”, :age =\> 2  
end  
row “55 or older”, :age =\> 3  
end

```
 banner do
   column "Total"
   group "Gender" do
     column "Male", :gender => "M"
     column "Female", :gender => "F"
   end
 end

```

end

puts my\_crosstab.to\_s

# =\> …

Table 1  
Q.A Age:  
Gender  
----------------  
Total Male Female  
(A) (B) (C)  
------- ------- -------  
(BASE) 3 2 1

18 - 54 2 1 1  
----------------------------- 67% 50% 100%

```
 18 - 34 1 1 --
                                  33% 50%

 35 - 54 1 -- 1
                                  33% 100%

```

55 or older 1 1 –  
33% 50%

I’d love to try it however, rubygems is having some trouble resolving  
the  
dependencies.

Sorry about that. I mucked up the dependencies list when releasing  
it. If you “sudo gem install crosstab” again, version 0.1.2 has it  
fixed.

Kind regards,
