Countr: Flexible Univariate Count Models Based on Renewal Processes

Flexible univariate count models based on renewal processes. The models may include covariates and can be specified with familiar formula syntax as in glm() and package 'flexsurv'. The methodology is described by Kharrat et all (2019) <doi:10.18637/jss.v090.i13> (included as vignette 'Countr_guide' in the package). If the suggested package 'pscl' is not available from CRAN, it can be installed with 'remotes::install_github("cran/pscl")'. It is no longer used by the functions in this package but is needed for some of the extended examples.
