In guysutton/ThermalSampleR: Calculate sample sizes required for critical thermal limits experiments

ThermalSampleR package

This repo contains the source code and skeleton R code for a package I am currently developing to calculate sample sizes required for accurate and precise estimates of critical thermal limits (e.g. CTmin/CTmax) for biological organisms.

The core functionality of ThermalSampleR revolves around: - 1. Bootstrap resampling of raw data - 2. Calculate population parameter of interest (e.g. mean) and confidence intervals across bootstrap samples. - 3. Calculate distribution of population parameter of interest. - 4. Wrapper functions to assist in plotting and making inferences from these simulations.

ThermalSampleR is still under development. This is my first attempt at writing an R package, so any input or advice would be much appreciated, particularly with regards to package development.
