Author: Jason Bryer, Ph.D. jason.bryer@cuny.edu Website: https://github.com/jbryer/visualMLE

To install the package, run:

remotes::install_github('jbryer/visualMLE')

Draft document explaining this visual approach to maximum likelihood estimation is available on Github or as a vignette.

To run the accompanying shiny app, execute the following command:

visualMLE::shiny_mle()

If you wish to use your own dataset, specify the df parameter:

visualMLE::shiny_mle(df = faithful)
