Examples

  # load data
  data(cip)
  # compute Composite index (eight-indicators linear) for a range of years
  index_cip = compind(country~., time="year", for.period = 2005:2010, data=cip, ctr=ProcessControl(weights=c("fixed", 1/6, 1/6, 1/12, 1/12, 1/12, 1/12, 1/6, 1/6), aggregation="linear"))
  out = compare(index_cip)
  #Print and plot compare results
  print(out)
  plot(out)
  # use a benchmark (a given year)
  bench= compind(country~., time="year", for.period = 2004, data=cip, ctr=ProcessControl(weights=c("fixed", 1/6, 1/6, 1/12, 1/12, 1/12, 1/12, 1/6, 1/6), aggregation="linear"))
  out = compare(index_cip, bench)
  print(out)
