Query 'R' Versions, Including 'r-release' and 'r-oldrel'

Query the main 'R' 'SVN' repository to find the versions 'r-release' and 'r-oldrel' refer to, and also all previous 'R' versions and their release dates.

Parse Argument Options

A binding to the minimist JavaScript library. This module implements the guts of optimist's argument parser without all the fanciful decoration.

R Interface to the 'Protocol Buffers' 'API' (Version 2 or 3)

Protocol Buffers are a way of encoding structured data in an efficient yet extensible format. Google uses Protocol Buffers for almost all of its internal 'RPC' protocols and file formats. Additional documentation is available in two included vignettes one of which corresponds to our 'JSS' paper (2016, . A sufficiently recent version of 'Protocol Buffers' library is required; currently version 3.3.0 from 2017 is the stated minimum.

Easily Send HTML Email Messages

Compose and send out responsive HTML email messages that render perfectly across a range of email clients and device sizes. Helper functions let the user insert embedded images, web link buttons, and 'ggplot2' plot objects into the message body. Messages can be sent through an 'SMTP' server, through the 'Posit Connect' service, or through the 'Mailgun' API service < https://www.mailgun.com/>.

Fast Polygon to Raster Conversion

Provides a drop-in replacement for rasterize() from the 'raster' package that takes polygon vector or data frame objects, and is much faster. There is support for the main options provided by the rasterize() function, including setting the field used and background value, and options for aggregating multi-layer rasters. Uses the scan line algorithm attributed to Wylie et al. (1967) .

Efficient Plotting of Large-Sized Data

A tool to plot data with a large sample size using 'shiny' and 'plotly'. Relatively small samples are obtained from the original data using a specific algorithm. The samples are updated according to a user-defined x range. Jonas Van Der Donckt, Jeroen Van Der Donckt, Emiel Deprost (2022) < https://github.com/predict-idlab/plotly-resampler>.

Trends and Indices for Monitoring Data

The TRIM model is widely used for estimating growth and decline of animal populations based on (possibly sparsely available) count data. The current package is a reimplementation of the original TRIM software developed at Statistics Netherlands by Jeroen Pannekoek. See < https://www.cbs.nl/en-gb/society/nature-and-environment/indices-and-trends%2d%2dtrim%2d%2d> for more information about TRIM.

Perform Power Analysis for the RI-CLPM and STARTS Model

Perform user-friendly power analyses for the random intercept cross-lagged panel model (RI-CLPM) and the bivariate stable trait autoregressive trait state (STARTS) model. The strategy as proposed by Mulder (2023) is implemented. Extensions include the use of parameter constraints over time, bounded estimation, generation of data with skewness and kurtosis, and the option to setup the power analysis for Mplus.

Comprehensive TIFF I/O with Full Support for 'ImageJ' TIFF Files

General purpose TIFF file I/O for R users. Currently the only such package with read and write support for TIFF files with floating point (real-numbered) pixels, and the only package that can correctly import TIFF files that were saved from 'ImageJ' and write TIFF files than can be correctly read by 'ImageJ' < https://imagej.net/ij/>. Also supports text image I/O.

Correcting Drift and Carry-over in Continuous Isotopic Measurements

A series of functions that allow an easy and fast correction for drift and carry-over in continuous isotopic measurements. This implementation provides queries allowing users to perform the implemented corrections according to their needs. These functions further enable the processing of large datasets and can provides apt visualizations of the corrections performed.
