Wrapper to forecasts data.frames with a single call.
data.frc(data.in,method=c("crost","crost.ma","tsb","sexsm","imapa","auto"),...)Data frame containing forecasts for all time series.
List with detailed output per series. To access individual outputs of the list use: sapply(out, get, x="element"), where "element" could be for example "frc.in".
Data frame with time series. This can also be a matrix or array with each column being a different time series.
Which method to use for forecasting: "crost", "crost.ma", "tsb", "sexsm", "imapa", "auto". "auto" uses PKa classification to select automatically between Croston, SBA and SES.
Additional inputs to pass to forecasting functions. See individual function documentation for options.
