#' Read the fars data into R
#' This function reads fars data stored as csv files into the working directory
#' and returns a tibble or dataframe
#' if the data do not exist an error message is given
#' You can customize the data to read with the \code{filename} argument

#' @param filename a character string giving the filename to read
#' @param return returns the data as tibble/dataframe or an error message if the filename does not exist
#' @importfrom readr readcsv
#' @importfrom dplyr tbl_df
#' @examples
#' \dontrun{
#' fars_read("accident_2015.csv.bz2")
#' or make the filename with: \code{\link{make_filename}}
#' make_filename(2015) %>% fars_read()
#' }
#' @seealso \code{\link{make_filename}}

  })
  dplyr::tbl_df(data)
}

#' Make the filename of the fars data
#' This function takes the (\code{year} as a string or integer as input and
#' returns the filename of the fars data stored as csv files
#' The return value of this function can be used as input for the \code{fars_read function}
#' @param year integer or string giving the year of the data
#' @return a string giving the filename of the fars data

#' @examples
#' make_filename(2015)
#' make_filename("2015")

#' @export

}


#' Read year and month of all data
#' This function reads all fars data stored as csv files for the provided input years
#' (taken as list or vector), and selects the month and year of the data
#' it is an ancillary function used by  \code{\link{fars_summarize_years}
#' if the \code{year} is invalid, an error message is given
#' @param years list or vector of years

#' @importFrom dplyr mutate
#' @importFrom magrittr "%>%"
#' @importFrom dplyr select

#' @return a list of dataframes containing month and year of the fars data,
#'  or a NULL if  the \code{year} is invalid

#' Locate the place of fatal injuries on map
