kendallknight

About

tldr; This package implements a different algorithm from the one implemented in base R, and it reduces the complexity of the Kendall’s correlation coefficient from O(n^2) to O(n log n) resulting in a runtime of nano seconds or minutes instead of minutes or hours. This package is written in C++ and uses cpp11 to export the functions to R. See the vignette for the mathematical details.
