include_code: Entries for which include_code=2 are included in the MCMC estimation of the hyperparameters of the model. Entries for which include_code is 1 or 2 are included in the prediction. Entries with 0 are excluded from both.
Details
In a simulation, an include_* dataset is selected that corresponds to the given wpp.year passed to the function run.tfr.mcmc. It is merged with a tfr dataset from the corresponding wpp package using the country_code column. Thus, the country entries in this dataset should correspond to entries in the tfr dataset.
The package contains also a dataset called my_tfr_template (in extdata directory) which is a template for user-specified TFR time series. It has the same structure as the tfr dataset, except that most of the columns are optional. The only required column is country_code (see description of the argument my.tfr.file in run.tfr.mcmc).
