This package was removed from CRAN on 2021-12-09. Its history is shown below.

Reason: check problems were not corrected in time. Requires Tk package 'BWidget' to install, and does not even declare it in 'SystemRequirements'

Details below reflect version 0.2, its last release before removal.

Overview

About

Maintained by Kari TokolaCRAN page ↗

HierO is a graphical user interface (GUI) tool for calculating optimal statistical power and sample size for hierarchical data structure. HierO constructs a user defined sample size optimization problem to GAMS (General Algebraic Modeling System)form and uses Rneos package to send the problem to NEOS server for solving.

Install

R (source archive)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/HierO/HierO_0.2.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "HierO_0.2.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (0.2) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.
