Tools for Spell Checking in R

Spell checking common document formats including latex, markdown, manual pages, and description files. Includes utilities to automate checking of documentation and vignettes as a unit test during 'R CMD check'. Both British and American English are supported out of the box and other languages can be added. In addition, packages may define a 'wordlist' to allow custom terminology without having to abuse punctuation.

Cache R Objects with Automatic Pruning

Key-value stores with automatic pruning. Caches can limit either their total size or the age of the oldest object (or both), automatically pruning objects to maintain the constraints.

Download Data from the Swiss National Bank (SNB)

Download data (tables and datasets) from the Swiss National Bank (SNB; < https://www.snb.ch/en>), the Swiss central bank. The package is lightweight and comes with few dependencies; suggested packages are used only if data is to be transformed into particular data structures, for instance into 'zoo' objects. Downloaded data can optionally be cached, to avoid repeated downloads of the same files.

Download Data from the Bank for International Settlements (BIS)

Functions for downloading data from the Bank for International Settlements (BIS; < https://www.bis.org/>) in Basel. Supported are only full datasets in (typically) CSV format. The package is lightweight and without dependencies; suggested packages are used only if data is to be transformed into particular data structures, for instance into 'zoo' objects. Downloaded data can optionally be cached, to avoid repeated downloads of the same files.

C++ Header Files for Stan

The C++ header files of the Stan project are provided by this package, but it contains little R code or documentation. The main reference is the vignette. There is a shared object containing part of the 'CVODES' library, but its functionality is not accessible from R. 'StanHeaders' is primarily useful for developers who want to utilize the 'LinkingTo' directive of their package's DESCRIPTION file to build on the Stan library without incurring unnecessary dependencies. The Stan project develops a probabilistic programming language that implements full or approximate Bayesian statistical inference via Markov Chain Monte Carlo or 'variational' methods and implements (optionally penalized) maximum likelihood estimation via optimization. The Stan library includes an advanced automatic differentiation scheme, 'templated' statistical and linear algebra functions that can handle the automatically 'differentiable' scalar types (and doubles, 'ints', etc.), and a parser for the Stan language. The 'rstan' package provides user-facing R functions to parse, compile, test, estimate, and analyze Stan models.

Boost C++ Header Files

Boost provides free peer-reviewed portable C++ source libraries. A large part of Boost is provided as C++ template code which is resolved entirely at compile-time without linking. This package aims to provide the most useful subset of Boost libraries for template use among CRAN packages. By placing these libraries in this package, we offer a more efficient distribution system for CRAN as replication of this code in the sources of other packages is avoided. As of release 1.84.0-0, the following Boost libraries are included: 'accumulators' 'algorithm' 'align' 'any' 'atomic' 'beast' 'bimap' 'bind' 'circular_buffer' 'compute' 'concept' 'config' 'container' 'date_time' 'detail' 'dynamic_bitset' 'exception' 'flyweight' 'foreach' 'functional' 'fusion' 'geometry' 'graph' 'heap' 'icl' 'integer' 'interprocess' 'intrusive' 'io' 'iostreams' 'iterator' 'lambda2' 'math' 'move' 'mp11' 'mpl' 'multiprecision' 'numeric' 'pending' 'phoenix' 'polygon' 'preprocessor' 'process' 'propery_tree' 'qvm' 'random' 'range' 'scope_exit' 'smart_ptr' 'sort' 'spirit' 'tuple' 'type_traits' 'typeof' 'unordered' 'url' 'utility' 'uuid'.

Another Approach to Package Installation

The goal of 'pak' is to make package installation faster and more reliable. In particular, it performs all HTTP operations in parallel, so metadata resolution and package downloads are fast. Metadata and package files are cached on the local disk as well. 'pak' has a dependency solver, so it finds version conflicts before performing the installation. This version of 'pak' supports CRAN, 'Bioconductor' and 'GitHub' packages as well.

Read and Write MAT Files and Call MATLAB from Within R

Methods readMat() and writeMat() for reading and writing MAT files. For user with MATLAB v6 or newer installed (either locally or on a remote host), the package also provides methods for controlling MATLAB (trademark) via R and sending and retrieving data between R and MATLAB.

Batch Execution of R Programs on 'Kubernetes', 'SLURM', and 'Posit Workbench'

Submit and monitor batch execution of R programs across distributed computing backends including 'Kubernetes', 'SLURM', and 'Posit Workbench'. Provides end-user job submission functions, cluster interface functions using 'kubectl' and 'SLURM' commands, and a 'plumber' API template for secure identity segregation. Supports parallel and sequential batch execution, file-based caching to skip unchanged programs, and 'logrx' integration for execution logging.

An R 'Pandoc' Writer

Contains some functions catching all messages, 'stdout' and other useful information while evaluating R code and other helpers to return user specified text elements (like: header, paragraph, table, image, lists etc.) in 'pandoc' markdown or several type of R objects similarly automatically transformed to markdown format. Also capable of exporting/converting (the resulting) complex 'pandoc' documents to e.g. HTML, 'PDF', 'docx' or 'odt'. This latter reporting feature is supported in brew syntax or with a custom reference class with a smarty caching 'backend'.
