Respected Sir/Ma'am.

I have checked Description file and man files. In the description field,
only text is there but not my name or my PC name.

I am not getting errors while checking as cran.
But unfornutately, automated checking at CRAN generating errors especially
in example section.

I have modified the example section to avoid that error (I have used
dontrun\{}).
This is my 00check.log content:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* using log directory ‘/home/vvlab/Desktop/pflMA_1.0.4/plfMA.Rcheck’

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I think, there are no errors now.
Shall I resubmit the tar file to CRAN?

Thank you.
