build_example_purse

Shortcut function to build an example purse. This is currently an "artificial" example, in that it takes the ASEM data set
used in <code>build_example_coin()</code> and replicates it for five years, adding artificial noise to simulate year-on-year variation.
This was done simply to demonstrate the functionality of purses, and will at some point be replaced with a real example.
See also <code>vignette("coins")</code>.

A comprehensive high-level package, for composite indicator construction and analysis. It is a "development environment"
for composite indicators and scoreboards, which includes utilities for construction (indicator selection, denomination, imputation,
data treatment, normalisation, weighting and aggregation) and analysis (multivariate analysis, correlation plotting, short cuts for
principal component analysis, global sensitivity analysis, and more). A composite indicator is completely encapsulated inside a single
hierarchical list called a "coin". This allows a fast and efficient work flow, as well as making quick copies, testing methodological variations and making comparisons.
It also includes many plotting options, both statistical (scatter plots, distribution plots) as well as for presenting results.

build_example_purse function

<dl><dt>up_to</dt>
<dd>The point up to which to build the index. If <code>NULL</code>, builds full index. Else specify a <code>build_*</code> function
(as a string) - the index will be built up to and including this function. This option is mainly for helping with
function examples. Example: <code>up_to = "build_normalise"</code>.</dd>
<dt>quietly</dt>
<dd>If <code>TRUE</code>, suppresses all messages.</dd></dl>
