This is the Debian GNU/Linux r-cran-farma package of fUnitRoots, a set of function for modelling of non-stationary time series for Rmetrics, a collection of packages for financial engineering and computational finance. Both fUnitRoots and Rmetrics were written and compiled primarily by Diethelm Wuertz. This package was created by Dirk Eddelbuettel . The sources were downloaded from the main CRAN site 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 package was renamed from its upstream name 'fUnitRoots' to 'r-cran-funitroots' to fit the pattern of CRAN (and non-CRAN) packages for R.
