<h1>
Function to perform isometric log-ratio transformation
</h1>
<div class="row">
<div class="span8">
<h2>Usage</h2>
<pre><div>ilr(x) invilr(x)</div></pre>
<h2>Arguments</h2>
<dl>
<dt>x</dt>
<dd>
A numeric vector. Naturally, the forward transformation is only sensible for
vectors with all elements being greater than zero.
</dd>
</dl>
<div class="Description">
<h2>Description</h2>
<p>This implementation is a special case of the class of isometric log-ratio transformations.</p>
</div>
<div class="Value">
<h2>Value</h2>
<p><dl>
The result of the forward or backward transformation. The returned components always
sum to 1 for the case of the inverse log-ratio transformation.
</dl></p>
