Contributing to risdr

Source: CONTRIBUTING.md

Contributions should preserve numerical reproducibility, backward compatibility where practical, and the documented continuous-response scope.

Development workflow

  1. Create a focused branch from main.
  2. Add or update roxygen2 documentation for every public interface change.
  3. Add regression tests for numerical changes and failure-path tests for new validation.
  4. Run devtools::document(), devtools::test(), and devtools::check(args = "--as-cran").
  5. Update NEWS.md when behaviour visible to users changes.
  6. Submit a pull request describing the statistical and software implications.

Do not alter accepted thesis results or estimator definitions without a traceable methodological justification and explicit review.
