formatdata

The data frame of CRC data, such as the output of the simulation
function <code>poptop</code>.

A character string indicating which column of <code>x</code> contains the
capture patterns.

A character vector of variable names for continuous
variables.

cont.vars

A character vector of variable names for categorical
variables.

categ.vars


Put a CRC dataset into a standard form that is understood by functions like
<code>lllcrc</code>.


Applies local log-linear capture-recapture models (LLLMs) for
closed populations, as described in the doctoral thesis of Zachary Kurtz.
The method is relevant when there are 3-5 capture occasions, with auxiliary
covariates available for all capture occasions.  As part of estimating the
number of missing population units, the method estimates the "rate of
missingness" as it varies over the covariate space.  In addition,
user-friendly functions are provided to recreate (approximately) the method
of Zwane and van der Heijden (2004), which applied the VGAM package
in a way that is closely related to LLLMs.
