Version

This is LEMAD v2.1.1

Install

To install the R package LEMAD, make sure you have devtools installed and then type from R (Rstudio):

library(devtools)
remotes::install_github("leonelhalsina/lemad")

If installation gives you a hard time:

It is likely that the latest Rtools needs to be installed. We recommend to have the latest R (it works perfectly with R 4.2.2, tested in both Windows 10 and Unix systems). Also, package rgal might cause issues.

In some Unix systems, it might need the following line when installing the vignette: pandoc::pandoc_install()

For MAC users, it is being reported that installing gfortran 11.2 could be useful.

DO NOT hesitate in contact me if none of this works: [email protected]

Using Lemad

We have prepared a vignette (a sort of manual with chunks of code) that can be called once you load the library:

library(lemad)
devtools::install(build_vignettes = TRUE)
# or perhaps you need to build the vignette since package installation, so do:
remotes::install_github("leonelhalsina/lemad",build_vignettes = TRUE)
browseVignettes("lemad")
