In goranbrostrom/idsr: Creates an episodes data frame

idsr

idsr is an R package for reading data from data bases stored in the IDS format (Alter and Mandemakers, 2014) and creating data in a form suitable for statistical analysis (in R).

Installation

Use Hadley Wickham's devtools:

> install.packages(c("devtools", "dplyr", "tidyr", "readxl"))
> devtools::install_github("goranbrostrom/idsr", build_vignettes = TRUE)
library(idsr)

and then (chronicle and personal are included example data frames)

library(idsr)
dat <- episodes(chronicle, personal)
head(dat)

and read the documentation and vignettes.

You may need additional tools, you will be told if something is missing.
