<!-- badges: start -->

<!-- badges: end -->

This repository contains a collection of functions that can be used to
conduct model calibration and merger simulation, and to replicate the
results from Panhans and Taragin 2023 and Panhans and Wiemer 2025.

## Installation

You can install the development version of mergersim from
[GitHub](https://github.com/) with:

``` r
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("mpanhans/mergersim")
```

You can install the released version of mergersim from
[CRAN](https://CRAN.R-project.org) with:

``` r
install.packages("mergersim")
```

## Example

See the package vignettes for examples:

``` r
vignette("horizontal-merger-simulations", package = "mergersim")
```

## Example
&#10;This is a basic example which shows you how to solve a common problem:
&#10;
``` r
library(mergersim)
## basic example code
```
&#10;What is special about using `README.Rmd` instead of just `README.md`? You can include R chunks like so:
&#10;
``` r
summary(cars)
#>      speed           dist       
#>  Min.   : 4.0   Min.   :  2.00  
#>  1st Qu.:12.0   1st Qu.: 26.00  
#>  Median :15.0   Median : 36.00  
#>  Mean   :15.4   Mean   : 42.98  
#>  3rd Qu.:19.0   3rd Qu.: 56.00  
#>  Max.   :25.0   Max.   :120.00
```
&#10;You'll still need to render `README.Rmd` regularly, to keep `README.md` up-to-date. `devtools::build_readme()` is handy for this.
&#10;You can also embed plots
&#10;In that case, don't forget to commit and push the resulting figure files, so they display on GitHub and CRAN.
