\title{Package `circular': summary information}
\description{
The package `circular' provides functions for the statistical analysis
and graphics representation of circular data (observations which are
angles). It originally started as a porting from S-plus to R of
functions developed for the book: Circular Statistics, from "Topics in
circular Statistics" (2001) S. Rao Jammalamadaka and A. SenGupta,
World Scientific. Now, it has an S3 implementation and several new
functions and datasets.
