CRAN Task Views

CRAN task views aim to provide guidance which packages on CRANare relevant for tasks related to a certain topic. They give a brief overview of the included packageswhich can also be automatically installed using thectvpackage. The views are intended to have a sharp focus so that it is sufficientlyclear which packages should be included (or excluded) - and they arenot meantto endorse the "best" packages for a given task.

To automatically install the views, thectv package needs to be installed, e.g., via
install.packages("ctv")
and then the views can be installed viainstall.views orupdate.views(where the latter only installs those packages are not installed and up-to-date), e.g.,
ctv::install.views("Econometrics")
ctv::update.views("Econometrics")
To query information about a particular task view on CRAN from within R or to obtain the list of all task views available, respectively,the following commands are provided:
ctv::ctv("Econometrics")
ctv::available.views()

The resources available from theCRAN Task View Initiativeprovide further information on how to contribute to existing task views and how to propose new task views.
