Accompanies the book "Nonparametric Statistical Methods Using R, 2nd Edition" by Kloke and McKean (2024, ISBN:9780367651350).  Includes methods, datasets, and random number generation useful for the study of robust and/or nonparametric statistics.  Emphasizes classical nonparametric methods for a variety of designs --- especially one-sample and two-sample problems.  Includes methods for general scores, including estimation and testing for the two-sample location problem as well as Hogg's adaptive method.
