P.S. Some time ago I tried using xtable, but I found use of kable (included in the knitr package) enhanced with the kableExtra package and its documentation, e.g., "Create Awesome LaTeX Table with knitr::kable and kableExtra" as of 2021-02-19, at CRAN "https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/kableExtra/index.html";, easier to use. (others might not agree).
