Evaluate parent kinetics using the NAFTA guidance

The function fits the SFO, IORE and DFOP models using mmkin +

The function fits the SFO, IORE and DFOP models using mmkin and returns an object of class nafta that has methods for printing and plotting.

Print nafta objects. The results for the three models are printed in the order of increasing model complexity, i.e. SFO, then IORE, and finally DFOP.

ds	A dataframe that must contain one variable called "time" with the -time values specified by the `time` argument, one column called -"name" with the grouping of the observed values, and finally one column of -observed values called "value".
title	Optional title of the dataset
quiet	Should the evaluation text be shown?
...	Further arguments passed to `mmkin` (not for the -printing method).
x	An `nafta` object.
digits	Number of digits to be used for printing parameters and -dissipation times.

Arguments

ds: A dataframe that must contain one variable called "time" with the +time values specified by the time argument, one column called +"name" with the grouping of the observed values, and finally one column of +observed values called "value".
title: Optional title of the dataset
quiet: Should the evaluation text be shown?
...: Further arguments passed to mmkin (not for the +printing method).
x: An nafta object.
digits: Number of digits to be used for printing parameters and +dissipation times.

Value

+ + +

An list of class nafta. The list element named "mmkin" is the +mmkin object containing the fits of the three models. The list element named "title" contains the title of the dataset used. The list element "data" contains the dataset used in the fits.
