rock: Reproducible Open Coding Kit

The Reproducible Open Coding Kit ('ROCK', and this package, 'rock') was developed to facilitate reproducible and open coding, specifically geared towards qualitative research methods. It was developed to be both human- and machine-readable, in the spirit of MarkDown and 'YAML'. The idea is that this makes it relatively easy to write other functions and packages to process 'ROCK' files. The 'rock' package contains functions for basic coding and analysis, such as collecting and showing coded fragments and prettifying sources, as well as a number of advanced analyses such as the Qualitative Network Approach and Qualitative/Unified Exploration of State Transitions. The 'ROCK' and this 'rock' package are described in the ROCK book (Zörgő & Peters, 2022; <https://rockbook.org>), in Zörgő & Peters (2024) <doi:10.1080/21642850.2022.2119144> and Peters, Zörgő and van der Maas (2022) <doi:10.31234/osf.io/cvf52>, and more information and tutorials are available at <https://rock.science>.
