		Diversity Indices with Statistical Inference // Provides a
		comprehensive framework for analyzing diversity from
		frequency/abundance count data. Implements a wide range of
		classical and entropy-based diversity indices, including
		Berger-Parker, Simpson (and related variants), Shannon,
		Brillouin, McIntosh, Margalef, Menhinick and Smith-Wilson.
		Supports permutation-based hypothesis tests for comparing
		groups with respect to diversity (global and pairwise
		comparisons), as well as confidence interval estimation using
		multiple bootstrap methods. Includes functionality for
		generating diversity profiles based on parametric families such
		as Hill numbers, Rnyi entropy, and Tsallis entropy. The methods
		are applicable to ecological community data (species abundance
		counts) and genetic or phenotypic class frequency data.
