\title{Estimating Hidden Population Size using Respondent Driven Sampling Data}
\description{
An integrated set of tools to estimate the size of a networked population
based on respondent-driven sampling data. The "sspse" packages is part of
the "RDS Analyst" suite of packages for the analysis of respondent-driven
sampling data.  For a list of functions type:
help(package='sspse')
}
\details{
For a complete list of the functions, use \code{library(help="sspse")} or
read the rest of the manual.

When publishing results obtained using this package the original authors are
to be cited as:

Gile, Krista J. and Handcock, Mark S. (2018) \pkg{sspse}: Estimating Hidden 
Population Size using Respondent Driven Sampling Data
R package, Los Angeles, CA.  Version 0.8, \url{https://hpmrg.org/sspse/}.

All programs derived from this package must cite it. For complete citation
information, use\cr \code{citation(package="sspse")}.

The package can also be accessed via graphical user interface
provided by the \code{RDS Analyst} software. 
\code{RDS Analyst} software was designed to help researchers
visualize and analyze data collected via respondent-driven sampling designs.
It has a broad range of estimation and visualization capabilities.

For detailed information on how to download and install the software, go to
