In jeff-hughes/simulateR: Test Statistical Models Through Simulation

simulateR

NOTE: This package is no longer under active development. Its functionality has been replaced by the "paramtest" package, available on CRAN and Github. The "simulateR" package has been retired and users should migrate over to "paramtest".

The simulateR R package includes a set of functions used to generate and test simulated data. It allows you to run simulations while easily varying parameters. One common use case would be to estimate statistical power for complex models.

To install the most recent stable release, use the following code:

install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("jeff-hughes/simulateR@v0.1.3", build_vignettes=TRUE)

Installation Issues

Networked computers can sometimes result in installation issues, as the install_github function sometimes has difficulty with networked directories. If this happens to you, use the .libPaths() function to find the path to your R libraries. That will likely give you a path starting with two backslashes, but you will need to convert that to a path starting with a drive letter (e.g., 'C:', 'D:'). From there, use the following code:

install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("jeff-hughes/simulateR@v0.1.3", build_vignettes=TRUE,
    args=c('--library="N:/path/to/libraries/"'))

Obviously, change the path to the path where your R libraries are stored.
