CRAN (and crantastic) updates this week

New packages
------------

* ber (1.0)
  Unknown
  http://crantastic.org/packages/ber

  In this package there are functions for adjusting the data to remove
  batch effects

* charlson (1.0)
  Vanessa Cox
  http://crantastic.org/packages/charlson

  Input patient id and icd9 codes and obtain summary index

* DeducerExtras (1.1)
  Ian Fellows
  http://crantastic.org/packages/DeducerExtras

  Added functionality for Deducer. This package includes additional
  dialogs for calculating distribution function values, cluster
  analysis, factor analysis and more.

* demography (1.02)
  Rob J Hyndman
  http://crantastic.org/packages/demography

  Functions for demographic analysis including lifetable calculations;
  Lee-Carter modelling; functional data analysis of mortality rates,
  fertility rates, net migration numbers; and stochastic population
  forecasting.

* futile.paradigm (1.0.0)
  Brian Lee Yung Rowe
  http://crantastic.org/packages/futile-paradigm

  Provides dispatching implementations suitable for functional
  programming paradigms. The framework provides a mechanism for
  attaching guards to functions similar to Erlang, while also
  providing the safety of assertions reminiscent of Eiffel.

* igraphtosonia (1.0)
  Sean J Westwood
  http://crantastic.org/packages/igraphtosonia

  This program facilitates exporting igraph graphs to the SoNIA file
  format

* interactivity (0.1)
  Jeroen Ooms
  http://crantastic.org/packages/interactivity

  Toggle R interactive mode by setting C level global variable
  R_Interactive.

* isdals (1.0-1)
  Claus Ekstrom
  http://crantastic.org/packages/isdals

  Provides data sets for Introduction to Statistical Data Analysis for
  the Life Sciences

* magma (0.2.1-2)
  Brian J. Smith
  http://crantastic.org/packages/magma

  Magma matrix classes and methods for parallel processing of matrix
  algebra operations.  Operations are performed with algorithms
  developed by the MAGMA research project.  MAGMA aims to achieve the
  fastest possible linear algebra libraries on hybrid multicore CPU
  and GPU architectures by exploiting their massive parallelism and
  minimizing communication latencies.

* normwhn.test (1.0)
  Peter Wickham
  http://crantastic.org/packages/normwhn-test

  Includes Omnibus Univariate and Multivariate Normality Tests (See
  Doornik and Hansen (1994)). One variation allows for the possibility
  of weak dependence rather than independence in the variable(s). Also
  included is an univariate white noise test where the null hypothesis
  is "white noise" rather than strict "white noise".

* pathmox (0.1)
  Gaston Sanchez
  http://crantastic.org/packages/pathmox

  companion package of plspm with approaches of segmentation trees in
  PLS Path Modeling.

* phitest (1.0-0)
  Leah R. Jager
  http://crantastic.org/packages/phitest

  This package perform a generalized goodness-of-fit test based on
  phi-divergences.  This test works by considering the maximum
  'distance' between the hypothesized distribution function and the
  empirical distribution function, where the measure of 'distance' is
  based on a phi-divergence.  This generalized family of tests is
  indexed by a real-valued parameter, s, wich can take values in
  [-1,2].  Special cases of this family include the Berk-Jones
  statistic (s=0), the supremum form of the Anderson-Darling statistic
  (s=2), and the statistic of Jaescke and Eicker (s=-1).  See the
  references for the phi.test() function for references regarding
  these special cases.  In addition to performing a statistical test,
  this package will also invert the test statistic to form and plot
  confidence bands for the true distribution function for sample sizes
  up to 10,000.
