Efficient tools for preparation, checking and post-processing of data in PK/PD (pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics) modeling, with focus on use of Nonmem, including consistency, traceability, and Nonmem compatibility of Data. Rigorously checks final Nonmem datasets. Implemented in 'data.table', but easily integrated with 'base' and 'tidyverse'.
