A new version of the resample package, 0.3, is available from

This version is for people using
"What Teachers Should Know about the Bootstrap: Resampling in the
Undergraduate Statistics Curriculum", Tim Hesterberg (2014)
This version is not on CRAN, only on
(I expect to do another release soon, and CRAN frowns on frequent releases.)

Change the default number of resamples to 10000 (9999 for permutation tests).

Change the name of the argument specifying the number of resamples from
B to R.

Remove anyNA, require R >= 3.1.0.

New functions jackknife, limits.bca, limits.bootstrapT.
The current versions only support one sample.

New utility functions IfElse, cat0, cat0n, catn,
colStdevs, colVars.

Add datasets, use them in examples.

Add an expand argument to limits.percentile.

Modify hist.resample to add a vertical line at the observed value,
add a legend, use more breaks and remove the borders of bars.
Add arguments to control the breaks and legend.

Change the default plotting character in qqnorm.resample.
