Documentation for using partools with quantreg? #15

Closed znmeb closed 7 years ago

znmeb commented 7 years ago

I've seen a number of mentions that partools / software alchemy can be used with quantreg / quantile regression. But I've been unable to find any documentation / examples on how to do that. Is there any?

Running grep for quantreg and rq( don't turn anything up in the source. I'd be happy to see one though.

@clarkfitzg The only place I've seen more than a mention of it is in the table of contents for https://www.amazon.com/Parallel-Computing-Data-Science-Examples/dp/1466587016/. I'm guessing there might be a code snippet there but I can't find one elsewhere.
