This is the Debian GNU/Linux r-cran-fecofin package of fEcofin, a
selection of economic and financial data sets, and part of Rmetrics, a
collection of packages for financial engineering and computational
finance. Both fBasics and Rmetrics were written and compiled primarily
by Diethelm Wuertz, with code by others (see below for fBasics).
This package was created by Dirk Eddelbuettel <edd@debian.org>.
The source tarball was downloaded from
http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/
and are also available from all CRAN mirrors as e.g.
http://cran.us.r-project.org/src/contrib/
The sources as well as the Rmetrics pdf documentation is also
available from upstream website at
http://www.Rmetrics.org aka
http://www.itp.phys.ethz.ch/econophysics/R/
The package was renamed from its upstream name 'fEcofin' to
'r-cran-fecofin' to fit the pattern of CRAN (and non-CRAN) packages
for R.
