Synthetic data are generated from the original (observed) data by the function syn. The package includes also tools to compare synthetic data with the observed data (compare.synds) and to fit (generalized) linear model to synthetic data (lm.synds, glm.synds) and compare the estimates with those for the observed data (compare.fit.synds). More extensive documentation with illustrative examples is provided in the package vignette.
