lat_bins

<a href="https://lifecycle.r-lib.org/articles/stages.html#deprecated"><img src="figures/lifecycle-deprecated.svg?package=palaeoverse&version=1.4.0" alt="[Deprecated]"></a>
<code>lat_bins()</code> was renamed to <code>lat_bins_degrees()</code> to be consistent
with <code>lat_bins_area().</code>

Provides functionality to support data preparation and exploration for
palaeobiological analyses, improving code reproducibility and accessibility. The
wider aim of 'palaeoverse' is to bring the palaeobiological community together
to establish agreed standards. The package currently includes functionality for
data cleaning, binning (time and space), exploration, summarisation and
visualisation. Reference datasets (i.e. Geological Time Scales <https://stratigraphy.org/chart>)
and auxiliary functions are also provided. Details can be found in:
Jones et al., (2023) <doi: 10.1111/2041-210X.14099>.

lat_bins function

<dl><dt>size</dt>
<dd><code>numeric</code>. A single numeric value defining the width of the
latitudinal bins. This value must be more than 0, and less than or equal to
90 (defaults to 10).</dd>
<dt>min</dt>
<dd><code>numeric</code>. A single numeric value defining the lower limit
of the latitudinal range (defaults to -90).</dd>
<dt>max</dt>
<dd><code>numeric</code>. A single numeric value defining the upper limit
of the latitudinal range (defaults to 90).</dd>
<dt>fit</dt>
<dd><code>logical</code>. Should bin size be checked to ensure that the
entire latitudinal range is covered? If <code>fit = TRUE</code>, bin size is
set to the nearest integer which is divisible by the user-input range.
If <code>fit = FALSE</code>, and bin size is not divisible into the range, the
upper part of the latitudinal range will be missing.</dd>
<dt>plot</dt>
<dd><code>logical</code>. Should a plot of the latitudinal bins be
generated? If <code>TRUE</code>, a plot is generated. Defaults to <code>FALSE</code>.</dd></dl>
