A package to support CDC US Deaths parsing usdeaths

This package is intended to help with the parsing of the CDC Death data. We are starting with the Mortality Multiple Cause Files as those files are used by BYUI’s DS 350 course based on the data from a fivethirtyeight article on guns death. We want to make the retrieval and use of these data easier for R users.
