+Pkg-Description: GNU R Epidemiology Tools for Data and Graphics
+ GNU R Tools for public health epidemiologists and data analysts.
+ Epitools provides numerical tools and programming solutions that
+ have been used and tested in real-world epidemiologic applications.
+ .
+ Many practical problems in the analysis of public health data
+ require programming or special software, and investigators in
+ different locations may duplicate programming efforts. Often,
+ simple analyses, such as the construction of confidence intervals,
+ are not calculated and thereby complicate appropriate statistical
+ inferences for small geographic areas. There are many examples of
+ simple and useful numerical tools that would enhance the work of
+ epidemiologists at local health departments and yet are not readily
+ available for the problem in front of them. The availability of
+ these tools will encourage wider use of appropriate methods and
+ promote evidence-based public health practices.
