This is the Debian package of the GNU R package known as "gam".
The upstream author is Trevor Hastie <hastie@stanford.edu>

This package was created by Chris Lawrence <lawrencc@debian.org>,
based on Dirk Eddelbuettel's packaging of r-cran-car.

The sources were downloaded from 
http://www.cran.mirrors.pair.com/src/contrib/

The package was renamed from its upstream name 'gam' to 'r-cran-gam'
to fit the pattern of CRAN (and non-CRAN) packages for R.

The upstream source also includes a number of Ratfor programs, written

code.  The original Ratfor programs, along with translations into
Fortran, can be found as a shell archive, available at:

Specifically, the following Fortran translations are included in this
package, named as follows:

Ratfor      Fortran (gamfit)    Fortran (r-cran-gam)

bakfit.r    bakfit.f            backfit.f
qsbart.r    qsbart.r            qsbart.f
sgram.r     sgram.f             sgram.f
sinerp.r    sinerp.f            sinerp.f
splsm.r     splsm.f             splsm.f
sslvrg.r    sslvrg.f            sslvrg.f
stxwx.r     stxwx.f             stxwx.f

Also, sbart.c is translated from sbart.f (and thus sbart.r) from Gamfit.
