R help - Jun 2005 - May I ask you a question about matrix population models?

Dear R user:
Now I am studying "matrix population models" and Rmetasim package,but
I
find it's very difficult to understand this model fully and can't
find a good teacher.My question is that:Now I do some research about one
marine shrimp: Penaeus chinensis, it's life cycle is one year. after it
breed it's offsprings, it will died. This shrimp's life cycle is dicrete
,if i use project matrix or life cyle graph to express it,how can i do it?

Best regards

Have you found the file "Using Rmetasim"? In windows you can access
this file by using the help and selecting "browse" directory. There
appears to be a reasonable amount of information here. It looks to me as if you
need to work your way through these files until you understand what is going on.
Once you have done that you might be able to be more specific with your
question.
