loadASRemlVersion

The <code>version</code> that is to be loaded, the vesion consisting of just the initial 
 characters that are significant in the version that should be loaded. 
 For example, the default value of 4 implies that any version that 
 begins with <code>"4"</code> is acceptable. It is used to check that the 
 required version is loaded.

version

Other library/require arguments that are needed to load the specified <code>version</code> of <code>asreml</code>.

&#8230;

Loads the specified version of <code>asreml</code>, provided that it is not already loaded. If the version of <code>asreml</code> is not the required version, then the loaded version is unloaded first.

asreml

Assists in automating the selection of terms to include in mixed models when
'asreml' is used to fit the models. Also used to display, in tables and graphs, predictions
obtained using any model fitting function and to explore differences between predictions.
The content falls into the following natural groupings: (i) Data, (ii) Object
manipulation functions, (iii) Model modification functions, (iv) Model testing functions,
(v) Model diagnostics functions, (vi) Prediction production and presentation functions,
(vii) Response transformation functions, and (viii) Miscellaneous functions (for further
details see 'asremlPlus-package' in help). A history of
the fitting of a sequence of models is kept in a data frame. Procedures are available for
choosing models that conform to the hierarchy or marginality principle and for displaying
predictions for significant terms in tables and graphs. The 'asreml' package provides a
computationally efficient algorithm for fitting mixed models using Residual Maximum
Likelihood. It is a commercial package that can be purchased from
'VSNi' <https://www.vsni.co.uk/> as 'asreml-R', who will supply a zip file for local
installation/updating (see <https://asreml.org/>). It is not needed for functions that are
methods for 'alldiffs' and 'data.frame' objects. The package 'asremPlus' can also be
installed from <http://chris.brien.name/rpackages/>.

loadASRemlVersion: Ensures that a specific version of `asreml` is loaded.
