Bayesian Inference for the Multivariate Skew-t Model

Estimates the multivariate skew-t and nested models, as described in the articles Liseo, B., Parisi, A. (2013). Bayesian inference for the multivariate skew-normal model: a population Monte Carlo approach. Comput. Statist. Data Anal. and in Parisi, A., Liseo, B. (2017).

Deprecated 'classic' 'Rcpp' 'API'

The 'RcppClassic' package provides a deprecated C++ library which facilitates the integration of R and C++. New projects should use the new 'Rcpp' 'API' in the 'Rcpp' package.

Minimal Type Guesser

Port the type guesser from 'readr' (so-called 'readr' first edition parsing engine, now superseded by 'vroom').

Read Hierarchical Fixed Width Files

Read hierarchical fixed width files like those commonly used by many census data providers. Also allows for reading of data in chunks, and reading 'gzipped' files without storing the full file in memory.
