Datasets from the Datasaurus Dozen

The Datasaurus Dozen is a set of datasets with the same summary statistics. They retain the same summary statistics despite having radically different distributions. The datasets represent a larger and quirkier object lesson that is typically taught via Anscombe's Quartet (available in the 'datasets' package). Anscombe's Quartet contains four very different distributions with the same summary statistics and as such highlights the value of visualisation in understanding data, over and above summary statistics. As well as being an engaging variant on the Quartet, the data is generated in a novel way. The simulated annealing process used to derive datasets from the original Datasaurus is detailed in "Same Stats, Different Graphs: Generating Datasets with Varied Appearance and Identical Statistics through Simulated Annealing" .

Permutation Test for Some Positive and Many Zero Responses

Calculates permutation tests that can be powerful for comparing two groups with some positive but many zero responses (see Follmann, Fay, and Proschan ).

Functions Related to ICES Advice

A collection of functions that facilitate computational steps related to advice for fisheries management, according to ICES guidelines. These include methods for calculating reference points and model diagnostics.

Modelling Framework for the Estimation of Salmonid Abundance

A set of functions to estimate capture probabilities and densities from multipass pass removal data.

Import Professional Baseball Data from 'Retrosheet'

A collection of tools to import and structure the (currently) single-season event, game-log, roster, and schedule data available from < https://www.retrosheet.org>. In particular, the event (a.k.a. play-by-play) files can be especially difficult to parse. This package does the parsing on those files, returning the requested data in the most practical R structure to use for sabermetric or other analyses.
