BIOSTATS Documentation BIOSTATS is a collection of R functions written to aid in the statistical analysis of ecological data sets using both univariate and multivariate procedures. All of these functions make use of existing R functions and many are simply convenience wrappers for functions contained in other popular libraries, such as VEGAN and LABDSV for multivariate statistics, however others are custom functions written using functions in the base or stats libraries.
