#' gridR
#'
#' @description gridR is a package that helps with a fundamental problem in function approximation: where to place the grid points
#' at which to measure the function. There are various ways to derive differently scaled points from a uniform grid in the package. There
#' is also a helper function to setup a knot vector as an input to \code{\link[splines]{splineDesign}}. The user can 
#' decide the exact position of knots, or specify the desired number of basis functions (similar to what you do with \code{df} in \code{\link[splines]{ns}}). In fact, this function can be viewed as an extension to \code{\link[splines]{ns}}, where only (natural) cubic spline basis are supported. All functions have a plotting method to help guide the user. Development is at \url{https://github.com/floswald/gridR}
#' The main functions are \code{\link{grid.maker}} and \code{\link{knot.select}}.
