propop 0.2.0
Projection without distinction of nationalities
- If desired, projections can be run for only one nationality (no longer
required to provide two nationalities).
propop::propop() returns a plain text feedback in the console summarizing
the settings used to run the projection.
propop 0.1.0
Development history and earlier versions
The propop package is a successor of staagBevProj (not publicly available),
which was last updated in December 2022. staagBevProj was developed by
Tina Cornioley, Jan Wunder, and Niklas Haffert. As head of Official Statistics
Aargau, Andrea Plüss supported
the devlopment as well as the
publication of staagBevProj and propop.
propop was developed by Norah Efosa and Adrian Gadient
(Statistik Aargau).
The main innovations are:
- Clearer separation between code that prepares data and code that runs the
projection
- Centrally united FSO parameters and corrections / adjustments; these are now
gathered in a single data frame that is passed to the projection function
- Only one function to run projections (rather than
projectPop and
projectAll)
- Convenience functions to directly download data and parameters from STAT-TAB
- Incorporation of assertions and unit tests
- Function to evaluate projection results
- Clearer documentation
