Description: Assists in automating the selection of terms to include in
        mixed models when 'asreml' is used to fit the models.
        Procedures are available for choosing models that conform to
        the hierarchy or marginality principle, for fitting and
        choosing between two-dimensional spatial models using
        correlation, natural cubic smoothing spline and P-spline
        models. A history of the fitting of a sequence of models is
        kept in a data frame. Also used to compute functions and
        contrasts of, to investigate differences between and to plot
        predictions obtained using any model fitting function. The
        content falls into the following natural groupings: (i) Data,
        (ii) Model modification functions, (iii) Model selection and
        description functions, (iv) Model diagnostics and simulation
        functions, (v) Prediction production and presentation
        functions, (vi) Response transformation functions, (vii) Object
        manipulation functions, and (viii) Miscellaneous functions (for
        further details see 'asremlPlus-package' in help). The 'asreml'
        package provides a computationally efficient algorithm for
        fitting a wide range of linear mixed models using Residual
        Maximum Likelihood. It is a commercial package and a license
        for it can be purchased from 'VSNi' <https://vsni.co.uk/> as
        'asreml-R', who will supply a zip file for local
        installation/updating (see <https://asreml.kb.vsni.co.uk/>). It
        is not needed for functions that are methods for 'alldiffs' and
        'data.frame' objects. The package 'asremPlus' can also be
        installed from <http://chris.brien.name/rpackages/>.
