refCat

A <code>summaryFunction</code>, intended to be called from 
<code>summarize</code>, which returns the reference level of a factor variable, 
i.e. the first category as returned by <code>levels(v)</code>. This level will serve
as the reference category and get absorbed into the intercept for most standard 
model fitting procedures and therefore, it may be convenient to know.

Data screening is an important first step of any statistical
analysis. dataMaid auto generates a customizable data report with a thorough
summary of the checks and the results that a human can use to identify possible
errors. It provides an extendable suite of test for common potential
errors in a dataset.
