ergm.rank is a set of extensions
to package ergm to fit and simulate
from exponential-family random graph models for networks whose edge
weights are ranks. Mainly, it implements the
CompleteOrder reference
measure for valued ERGMs Kr12e,KrHu23eergm.rank and provides some rank-order change
statistics (search.ergmTerms("ordinal") for a list) KrBu17eergm.rank.

All programs derived from this package must cite it.
This package contains functions specific to using
ergm to model networks whose dyad values are
ranks. Examples include preferences, valued ties reduced to ranks,
etc.. These terms have a specialized interpretation, and are
therefore generally prefixed by "rank.", though they should take
any valued data.
