Loading in the Data

We load in all the data described in the previous section at once by using the function yourprep(). The only required argument is the chosen alphanumeric tag (and the subdirectory name if its not the working directory). The program will then attempt to load all files in that directory beginning with the chosen tag and will ignore the rest. Then run the function. For example:

ydata <- yourprep(tag="cancerMales")

The output object ydata (of class yourprep) now includes all the data and associated information needed for making forecasts.
