Provides data for Kaya identity variables (population, gross
domestic product, primary energy consumption, and energy-related
CO2 emissions) for the world and for individual nations, and
utility functions for looking up data,  plotting trends of
Kaya variables, and plotting the fuel mix for a given country
or region. The Kaya identity (Yoichi Kaya and Keiichi Yokobori,
"Environment, Energy, and Economy: Strategies for Sustainability"
(United Nations University Press, 1998) and
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaya_identity>) expresses a nation's
or region's greenhouse gas emissions in terms of its population,
per-capita Gross Domestic Product, the energy intensity of its
economy, and the carbon-intensity of its energy supply.

Many data science problems reduce to operations on very tall,
skinny matrices.  However, sometimes these matrices can be so tall that they
are difficult to work with, or do not even fit into main memory.  One
strategy to deal with such objects is to distribute their rows across
several processors.  To this end, we offer an 'S4' class for tall, skinny,
distributed matrices, called the 'shaq'.  We also provide many useful
numerical methods and statistics operations for operating on these
distributed objects.  The naming is a bit "tongue-in-cheek", with the class
a play on the fact that 'Shaquille' 'ONeal' ('Shaq') is very tall, and he
starred in the film 'Kazaam'.
