How to reduce running time of iNEXT code #21

Closed mohammad4458 closed 7 years ago

Hi Johnson thanks for the iNEXT package. It is very useful in comparing site diversities in marine environment. However, it tends to have long runtimes when using iNEXT() for my data (about 24 hours). Is there any way to reduce running time? Thanks in advance Mohammad

Hi Mohammad, The iNEXT() function allows size argument to choose an integer vector of sample sizes (number of individuals or sampling units) to compute R/E curve.

Before we provide parallel computing version, you could use some parallel computational package (e.g. foreach) to save computing time.
