The gtools R package provides functions to assist in R programming,
including:
- assist in developing, updating, and maintaining R and R packages
(
ask,checkRVersion,getDependencies,keywords,scat), - calculate the logit and inverse logit transformations (
logit,inv.logit), - test if a value is missing, empty or contains only NA and NULL

invalid), - manipulate R’s .Last function (
addLast), - define macros (
defmacro), - detect odd and even integers (
odd,even), - convert strings containing non-ASCII characters (like single quotes)
to plain ASCII (
ASCIIfy), - perform a binary search (
binsearch), - sort strings containing both numeric and character components
(
mixedsort), - create a factor variable from the quantiles of a continuous variable
(
quantcut), - enumerate permutations and combinations (
combinations,permutation), - calculate and convert between fold-change and log-ratio
(
foldchange,logratio2foldchange,foldchange2logratio), - calculate probabilities and generate random numbers from Dirichlet
distributions (
rdirichlet,ddirichlet), - apply a function over adjacent subsets of a vector (
running), - modify the TCP_NODELAY (
de-Nagle) flag for socket objects, - efficient
rbindof data frames, even if the column names dont match (smartbind`), - generate significance stars from p-values (
stars.pval), - convert characters to/from ASCII codes (
asc,chr), - convert character vector to ASCII representation (
ASCIIfy). - apply title capitalization rules to a character vector (
capwords)
