devel is the development version; release is the current stable one.

3.24 (devel), 3.23 (release)

Variance-stabilizing transformations help with the analysis of heteroskedastic data (i.e., data where the variance is not constant, like count data). This package provide two types of variance stabilizing transformations: (1) methods based on the delta method (e.g., 'acosh', 'log(x+1)'), (2) model residual based (Pearson and randomized quantile residuals).
