# epade 0.5.1 (CRAN)

Easy Plots

[Record of 0.5.1](/cran/epade/v/0.5.1.md) | Compare: [With 0.3.8](/cran/epade/compare/0.3.8...0.5.1.md), [With another package](/compare/epade.md#add), [Downloads](/downloads/compare/epade.md#add) | [Licences](/cran/epade/licences.md) | [SBOM](/cran/epade/sbom.md)

Install from CRAN: `install.packages("epade")`

Also from:

- r2u (Ubuntu binaries): `sudo apt install r-cran-epade` _Listed from recorded download activity on this channel, not from a live index, so read it as last known. Bioconductor packages are named r-bioc-<name> there._
- Fedora COPR (iucar/cran): `sudo dnf install R-CRAN-epade` _A rebuild of what CRAN lists, so it can lag CRAN by a rebuild._
- autoCRAN (openSUSE): `sudo zypper install R-epade` _Listed from recorded download activity on this channel, not from a live index, so read it as last known._

- CRAN checks: OK (notes on 2 of 13)
- CRAN 30-day downloads: 377 (up 1.6% on the 30 days before, the better direction)
- Dependent packages: 0 (none suggest it)
- Test coverage: No tests (nothing to run)
- Advisories: None known

## Downloads

[Method](/about/downloads.md)

- Downloads in the last 30 days: 381 (down 1.5% on the 30 days before, the worse direction. It is the sum of 3 channels: CRAN, r2u and autoCRAN.)

CRAN alone: rank among CRAN packages, last 30 days: 9,324 of 26,530.

| Channel | Downloads in the last 30 days | In the total | Rank in that channel | Change |
| --- | ---: | --- | --- | --- |
| CRAN | 377 | yes | 9,324 of 26,530 | up 1.6% on the 30 days before, the better direction |
| r2u | 2 | yes | 14,902 of 30,526 | down 66.7% on the 30 days before, the worse direction |
| autoCRAN | 2 | yes | 22,452 of 29,212 | down 80% on the 30 days before, the worse direction |

Other windows: [Last 90 days](/cran/epade.md?win=90d#downloads), [Last 365 days](/cran/epade.md?win=365d#downloads), [All time](/cran/epade.md?win=all#downloads).

To leave channels out of the total, name them in the address, joined by dots: `?off=r2u.autocran`.

#### Over time

Downloads over time, the last 12 whole months:

| Month | CRAN | r2u | autoCRAN | Sum |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Oct 2025 | 514 | 4 | no figure | 518 |
| Nov 2025 | 312 | 2 | no figure | 314 |

| Jun 2026 | 334 | no figure | no figure | 334 |
| Jul 2026 | 264 | 10 | no figure | 274 |
| Aug 2026 | 239 | 8 | 21 | 268 |
| Sep 2026 | 387 | no figure | 8 | 395 |

First day on record: CRAN 10 Oct 2012, r2u 22 May 2022, autoCRAN 9 Jul 2026.

Every channel here counts downloads, so the channels can be stacked and summed for one period. Each channel counts in its own way and covers a different span of years, so read a sum as a rough total, and read a rise where a channel begins as that channel starting, not as growth.

Weeks start on Monday. A first or last week or month that the channel does not cover in full is left out, so every point is a whole period.

Days with no record add nothing to their week or month. For a little-used package that is usually a day with no downloads, but it can also be a gap in collection.
