My question is very simple. This is an assignment from the R course.
a) Install the AER package and load it in R.
b) Load the data set SwissLabor into your workspace and get a first impression of it. Which variables does R consider as factor variables, which ones as numerical ones?
c) Create a baseline table with the variables age, income, education and participation, stratified by foreign and without statistical test for differences. Export the table in a .csv file named “SwissLabor table1.csv”.
I work a long time with R but I don't understand what exactly the author of this exercise wants to see in R code and in output.
I there an error in this assignment? If someone knows how to solve this task, please, help.
Thank!

#c.2) save to csv file
