CRAN_Status_Badge total monthly codecov pkgdown R-CMD-check

Overview

The sprtt package is a sequential probability ratio tests toolbox (sprtt).

The package contains:

Installation

Release version from CRAN

This is the recommended version for a normal user.

# installs the package
install.packages("sprtt")

Development version from GitHub

To get a bug fix or to use a feature from the development version, you can install the development version from GitHub.

# the installation requires the "devtools" package
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("MeikeSteinhilber/sprtt")

Documentation

Detailed documentation can be found on the home page. There are several articles covering the usage of the package, the theoretical background of the test, and also an extended use case.

Short examples can be found in the following paragraph.
