caption

Set the table caption

By default, captions are displayed above the table. You can change this with caption_pos().

caption(ht)
caption(ht) <- value
set_caption(ht, value)

`ht`	A huxtable.
`value`	A string. Set to `NA` to reset to the default, which is `"NA"`.

Captions are not escaped. See the example for a workaround.

caption() returns the caption property. set_caption() returns the modified huxtable.

set_caption(jams, "Pots of jam for sale")
# escape caption characters:
caption(jams) <- sanitize(
      "Make $$$ with jam",
      type = "latex")
