title: 'DasGuptR: Das Gupta Standardisation and Decomposition'
version: 2.1.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.DasGuptR
abstract: 'Implementation of Das Gupta''s standardisation and decomposition of population
  rates, as set out "Standardization and decomposition of rates: A user’s manual",
  Das Gupta (1993) <https://www2.census.gov/library/publications/1993/demographics/p23-186.pdf>.
  The goal of these methods is to calculate adjusted rates based on compositional
  ''factors'' and quantify the contribution of each factor to the difference in crude
  rates between populations. The package offers functionality to handle various scenarios
  for any number of factors and populations, where said factors can be comprised of
  vectors across sub-populations (including cross-classified population breakdowns),
  and with the option to specify user-defined rate functions.'
