 ## Formatting output
 
--   `paste_tbl_grp()` to paste together information (usually descriptive
-    statistics) from two groups.
--   `pretty_pvalues()` to round and format p-values.
--   `stat_paste()` to combine and format values, such as:
-    -   Mean (sd)
-    -   Median \[min, max\]
-    -   Estimate (SE of Estimate)
-    -   Estimate (95% CI Lower Bound, Upper Bound)
-    -   Estimate/Statistic (p value)
--   `escape()` to protect control characters in a string for use in a
-    latex table or caption
--   `collapse_group_row()` as an alternative to
-    `kableExtra::collapse_rows()` for long tables in latex

 ## Utility functions
 
--   `round_away_0()` is an alternative to the `round()` function to
-    properly perform mathematical rounding.
--   `escape()` is used to inserts a “\\” in front of values, which is
-    needed for Latex.
--   `get_full_name()` looks up a username from Fred Hutch ID.
--   `get_session_info()` creates a a data frame with session
-    information.
