ecostats: Code and Data Accompanying the Eco-Stats Text (Warton 2022)

Functions and data supporting the Eco-Stats text (Warton, 2022, Springer), and solutions to exercises. Functions include tools for using simulation envelopes in diagnostic plots, and a function for diagnostic plots of multivariate linear models. Datasets mentioned in the package are included here (where not available elsewhere) and there is a vignette for each chapter of the text with solutions to exercises.
