Overview

About

Software (bootstrap, cross-validation, jackknife) and data for the book "An Introduction to the Bootstrap" by B. Efron and R. Tibshirani, 1993, Chapman and Hall. This package is primarily provided for projects already based on it, and for support of the book. New projects should preferentially use the recommended package "boot".

Changes in 2019.6
  • Move development to GitLab, and update URLs accordingly.
  • Register native routines (thanks to Don Tawanpitak).
