Read and Write '.ini' Files

Parse simple '.ini' configuration files to an structured list. Users can manipulate this resulting list with lapply() functions. This same structured list can be used to write back to file after modifications.

Cache 'CRAN'-Like Metadata and R Packages

Metadata and package cache for CRAN-like repositories. This is a utility package to be used by package management tools that want to take advantage of caching.

Text Extraction, Rendering and Converting of PDF Documents

Utilities based on 'libpoppler' < https://poppler.freedesktop.org> for extracting text, fonts, attachments and metadata from a PDF file. Also supports high quality rendering of PDF documents into PNG, JPEG, TIFF format, or into raw bitmap vectors for further processing in R.

Import and Handling for Plain and Formatted Text Files

Functions for importing and handling text files and formatted text files with additional meta-data, such including '.csv', '.tab', '.json', '.xml', '.html', '.pdf', '.doc', '.docx', '.rtf', '.xls', '.xlsx', and others.

Extract Genotypes from a PLINK .bed File

A matrix-like data structure that allows for efficient, convenient, and scalable subsetting of binary genotype/phenotype files generated by PLINK (< https://www.cog-genomics.org/plink2>), the whole genome association analysis toolset, without loading the entire file into memory.

Byte Pair Encoding Text Tokenization

Unsupervised text tokenizer focused on computational efficiency. Wraps the 'YouTokenToMe' library < https://github.com/VKCOM/YouTokenToMe> which is an implementation of fast Byte Pair Encoding (BPE) < https://aclanthology.org/P16-1162/>.

Functions for Tabular Reporting

Use a grammar for creating and customizing pretty tables. The following formats are supported: 'HTML', 'PDF', 'RTF', 'Microsoft Word', 'Microsoft PowerPoint', R 'Grid Graphics' and 'patchwork'. 'R Markdown', 'Quarto' and the package 'officer' can be used to produce the result files. The syntax is the same for the user regardless of the type of output to be produced. A set of functions allows the creation, definition of cell arrangement, addition of headers or footers, formatting and definition of cell content with text and or images. The package also offers a set of high-level functions that allow tabular reporting of statistical models and the creation of complex cross tabulations.

Creates Log Files

Contains functions to help create log files. The package aims to overcome the difficulty of the base R sink() command. The log_print() function will print to both the console and the file log, without interfering in other write operations.

Manipulation of Microsoft Word and PowerPoint Documents

Access and manipulate 'Microsoft Word', 'RTF' and 'Microsoft PowerPoint' documents from R. The package focuses on tabular and graphical reporting from R; it also provides two functions that let users get document content into data objects. A set of functions lets add and remove images, tables and paragraphs of text in new or existing documents. The package does not require any installation of Microsoft products to be able to write Microsoft files.

Functional Data Analysis

These functions were developed to support functional data analysis as described in Ramsay, J. O. and Silverman, B. W. (2005) Functional Data Analysis. New York: Springer and in Ramsay, J. O., Hooker, Giles, and Graves, Spencer (2009). Functional Data Analysis with R and Matlab (Springer). The package includes data sets and script files working many examples including all but one of the 76 figures in this latter book. Matlab versions are available by ftp from < https://www.psych.mcgill.ca/misc/fda/downloads/FDAfuns/>.
