To install:

Begin by installing dependencies from CRAN:

install.packages(c("devtools", "glmnet", "plyr"))

The Smisc package (which is imported by glmnetLRC) contains C code and requires compilation:

• Mac: you'll need to install Xcode
• Windows: you'll need to install R tools
• Linux/Unix: compilation should take place automatically

With the compilation tools in place, you can now install the Smisc and glmnetLRC packages from the PNNL github site:

devtools::install_github("pnnl/Smisc")
devtools::install_github("pnnl/glmnetLRC")

We welcome contributions to this package. Please follow these steps when contributing.
