Read.isi: Automated access to old World Fertility Survey data saved in
fixed-width format based on ISI-formatted codebooks
Old statistical data was often stored in formats that are
difficult to gain access to by modern statistical software. An
example of this are the data-files of the ‘World Fertility
Survey’, which are stored in fixed-width format and accompanied
by codebooks in a format developed by the International
Statistical Institute. The read.isi package allows to gain
access to these statistical data automatically, or to convert
to codebook to SPSS-syntax.
