More than 10 years after the first code of the 'mkin' package was published, I am happy to announce the release of mkin version 1.0!
With the version number I would like to indicate that the approach taken in the package is mature and battle-proven, and further significant developments …
more ...Working on the application of nonlinear mixed-effects models to chemical degradation data, it became desirable to further speed up the solution of at least the most common degradation models used in the mkin package, simple first-order (SFO) decline of the parent compound coupled to SFO decline of a metabolite, or …

This is a short note about reading tables from common office document formats into R.
After problems with large worksheets I have turned to using the readxl package.
require(readxl)
sheet_names <- excel_sheets("my_file.xls")
d <- read_excel("my_file.xls", sheet = 1, range = "A3:C7", col_names = TRUE)
Recently …
more ...Upon finishing some projects, I found the time to update this web server (from Debian wheezy to Debian jessie) and to give the web site a new design.
And after the start of the new year, the translation of the site to German is completed as well.
