Contributions summary:Earo primarily contributed to the `forecast` repository by implementing new functions and modifying existing ones related to time series analysis and forecasting. They introduced the `bizdays` function for calculating trading days and the `easter` function for handling Easter holidays, enhancing the library's capabilities. Further contributions included bug fixes and adding functionality, specifically related to handling `lambda` transformations in several existing functions, such as `clean`, which suggests a focus on improving data preprocessing and model flexibility.
