gompertz: Gompertz growth law
In grofit: The package was developed to fit fit many growth curves obtained under different conditions.

The function calculates the values of the Gompertz growth curve for given time points.

1	gompertz(time, A, mu, lambda, addpar = NULL)

`time`	Time points (x-axes) for which the function values will be returned.
`A`	Maximum of the curve. If a vector is provided only the first entry is used.
`mu`	Maximum slope. If a vector is provided only the first entry is used.
`lambda`	Lag-phase. If a vector is provided only the first entry is used.
`addpar`	Additional parameters have no effect in this type of model. They belong to the standard model description in `grofit` and are initialized as `addpar=NULL` in the function header.

The function follows the parametrization

A exp[-exp(mu exp(1)/A(lambda-t)+1)]

Numeric vector giving the values of Gompertz growth law for numeric input vector time.
