title: 'nomiShape: Visualization and Analysis of Nominal Variable Distributions'
version: 1.0.2
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.nomiShape
abstract: Provides tools for visualizing and analyzing the shape of discrete nominal
  frequency distributions. The package introduces centered frequency plots, in which
  nominal categories are ordered from the most frequent category at the center toward
  less frequent categories on both sides, facilitating the detection of distributional
  patterns such as uniformity, dominance, symmetry, skewness, and long-tail behavior.
  In addition, the package supports Pareto charts for the study of dominance and cumulative
  frequency structure in nominal data. The package is designed for exploratory data
  analysis and statistical teaching, offering visualizations that emphasize distributional
  form rather than arbitrary category ordering.
