 ### Code Style
 
 *   New code should follow the tidyverse [style guide](https://style.tidyverse.org). 
     You can use the [styler](https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=styler) package to apply these styles, but please don't restyle code that has nothing to do with your PR.

+    * To apply the appropriate style with styler please use `styler:::style_active_pkg()`
 
 *  We use [roxygen2](https://cran.r-project.org/package=roxygen2), with [Markdown syntax](https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/roxygen2/vignettes/rd-formatting.html), for documentation.
