M-estimation, or estimating equation, methods are widely applicable for point
estimation and asymptotic inference. In this paper, we present an R package
that can find roots and compute the empirical sandwich variance estimator for
any set of user-specified, unbiased estimating equations. Examples from the
M-estimation primer by Stefanski and Boos (2002) demonstrate use of the
software. The package also includes a framework for finite sample variance
corrections and a website with an extensive collection of tutorials
