Examples

# Folder where your data is stored (in ascii format, for example)
# dir <- "C://MyMonthlyData//"
#
# Load monthly precipitation to calculate P12 (total annual rainfall)
# preclist <- LoadMonthlyFiles(dir, ext='.asc', varbl='prec', format='ascii')
#
# Now calculate P12
# outfile <- paste(dir, "//P12.asc", sep="")
# p12 <- p12Calc(preclist, outfile, format='ascii')
# 
# Or just calculate the whole set
# bioclim <- BioCalc(dir, ext='.asc', format='ascii')
