Lifecycle: experimental R-CMD-check

The goal of prsr is to provide a set of convenience functions relevant for calculating polygenic risk scores on a target dataset. The package uses plink2 (https://www.cog-genomics.org/plink/2.0/) to calculate polygenic risk scores (PRS) on a target dataset given a base dataset that includes variants, effect alleles, and corresponding weights.

Installation
