Provides 'Python'-style list comprehensions.
    List comprehension expressions use usual loops (for(), while() and repeat()) and
    usual if() as list producers. In many cases it gives more concise notation than
    standard "*apply + filter" strategy.

Several functions are available for calculating the most
    widely used effect sizes (ES), along with their variances, confidence
    intervals and p-values.  The output includes ES's of d (mean difference), g
    (unbiased estimate of d), r (correlation coefficient), z' (Fisher's z), and
    OR (odds ratio and log odds ratio). In addition, NNT (number needed to
    treat), U3, CLES (Common Language Effect Size) and Cliff's Delta are
    computed. This package uses recommended formulas as described in The
    Handbook of Research Synthesis and Meta-Analysis (Cooper, Hedges, &
    Valentine, 2009). A free web application is available at
    <https://acdelre.github.io/apps/compute_es/>.

Datasets related to the Comrades Marathon used in the book  Antony Unwin (2024, ISBN:978-0367674007) "Getting (more out of) Graphics". The main dataset contains the times of every runner that finished in the time limit for each year the race was run.

Evaluates the probability density function (PDF), cumulative distribution function (CDF), quantile function (QF), random numbers and maximum likelihood estimates (MLEs) of well-known complementary binomial-G, complementary negative binomial-G and complementary geometric-G families of distributions taking baseline models such as exponential, extended exponential,  Weibull,  extended Weibull, Fisk, Lomax, Burr-XII and Burr-X. The functions also allow computing the goodness-of-fit measures namely the Akaike-information-criterion (AIC), the Bayesian-information-criterion (BIC), the minimum value of the negative log-likelihood (-2L) function, Anderson-Darling (A) test, Cramer-Von-Mises (W) test, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, P-value and convergence status. Moreover, some commonly used data sets from the fields of actuarial, reliability, and medical science are also provided. Related works include:
