irutils is an R package providing common utility functions convenient for institutional researchers. To get started, execute the following commands in R:
install.packages(c('devtools', 'roxygen2'), repos='http://cran.r-project.org')
install_github('irutils', 'jbryer')
If you are an instituional researcher, it is likely you will want to install the ipeds package as well. That package is hosted by Github and can be installed with the following command:
install_github('ipes','jbryer')
Note that many of the functions that use to be in irutils have been moved to their own package, including retention, likert, and sqlutils.
