palint

The goal of palint is to have a package with helper functions to calculate palaeoclimate interactions. It is currently used privately but the goal is to add all functions I have used in the past in here.

Installation

You can install the development version from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("Ischi94/palint")

Example

The package currently contains one function: perc_change. It calculates the percentage change between two values:

library(palint)
perc_change(2, 4)
#> [1] 1

The default returns the raw value, but by changing the print.result parameter we can get the raw value expressed as percentage or in a text description:

perc_change(2, 4, "percentage")
#> [1] 100

perc_change(2, 4, "text")
#> [1] "The percentage change from 2 to 4 is 100%"
