farsSO Package

This is a package for the third course in the Johns Hopkins University Advanced R Specialization - Building R Packages - on Coursera, taught by Roger D. Peng and Brooks Anderson. The functions and data in the package are provided by the course instructors, while the documentation and package setup is completed by the student. This is an R Markdown format used for publishing markdown documents to GitHub. When you click the Knit button all R code chunks are run and a markdown file (.md) suitable for publishing to GitHub is generated.
