drop mosaic dependency #48

Closed beanumber closed 4 years ago

@nicholasjhorton , I think we should drop the mosaic dependency for this package. We don't need it or use it, and it's not best practice to force users to install all of the mosaic dependencies just to install this package for the book (which should be lightweight).

library(mdsr) doesn't attach mosaic anyway, so users will already have to library(mosaic) separately. The only change to users here is that they would have to install mosaic separately.

We should make a quick decision about this before CRAN submission.

I'm find with dropping mosaic as a dependency: I had thought that you'd already made this change.
