R package component

• Add a new function/feature to the R package using parallel computing or Rcpp (a must.)
• The package should have a README.md file with a brief description of the package.
• The package should pass R CMD checks using macOS, Ubuntu, and Windows for the R release and development versions (x6 R CMD checks). Notes are OK, but warnings are not (recall the usethis::use_github_action... function).
• The package should pass the R CMD check on Ubuntu using the R release version with the option --as-cran (more strict R CMD check.)
• The package should have a vignette that illustrates the use of the functions in the package.

Presentation component

• The time allocation will be 7 minutes (5/100 points of penalty per extra minute).
• Presentation should be clear.
• It Should be presented with slides using quarto.
• Review of the problem which highlights the issue or “why” the problem needs solving (may consider including visuals to highlight the issue; ~2 slides)
• Overview of the package until the midterm (~1 slide)
• The new feature of the coding solution (other than the R package itself; ~ 1 slide each)
• Provide a single example highlighting the package (~1-3 slides).
