poptop

Optional: a string that is the name of some function for
defining a heterogeneity structure, possibly in terms of covariates.
Currently the only non-null option implemented is <code><a rd-options="" href="/link/french.1?package=lllcrc&version=1.2" data-mini-rdoc="lllcrc::french.1">french.1</a></code>, although
a user could easily create additional options

heters

Optional: a string that is the name of some function for
defining covariates for each population unit.  Currently the only non-null
option implemented is <code>age.sex.zip</code>

covs

Logical, TRUE by default.  If FALSE, keep the all-zero
capture patterns in the dataset to be returned

remove.zeros


Generate fake capture-recapture datasets to be used in simulation
experiments


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.
