Changes in version 1.3.1 (2024-02-08) Bug fixes: - Windows builds were limited to x86_64 CPUs due to an an oversimplified configure script. Many thanks to Tomas Kalibera for not only pointing out the problem, but also for providing a patch. Changes in version 1.3.0 (2023-08-12) New features: - new function matchMoments that completes (incomplete) sets of moments by completing them for a given distribution type (if possible) and returning the complete set of moments or the resulting distribution.. (suggestion/wish from Michael Koohafkan) Changes in version 1.2.4 (2023-06-14) Small changes: - empMoments(x) now returns NA if x contains missing values. - a misleading error message (in case package gsl is not installed) has been removed. Changes in version 1.2.3 (2022-10-20) Small changes: - changed encoding to UTF-8. Bug fixes: - fixed compiler note about missing prototype. - fixed wrong character in comment. Changes in version 1.2.2 (2022-03-29) Bug fixes: - replaced deprecated legacy S-compatibility macro DOUBLE_EPS. Many thanks to Prof Brian Ripley for the report and the instructions for solving the issue. Changes in version 1.2.1 (2021-10-06) Bug fixes: - fixed obsolete Autoconf constructs. Many thanks to Kurt Hornik for the report and the instructions for solving the issue. Changes in version 1.2 (2021-06-10) Bug fixes: - documentation of type I/II/VII has been corrected (the missing constant 1/|s| has been added to the probability density functions in the documentation; the implementations were not affected). (Many thanks to Prof. David Fox for reporting!) Small changes: - changed the name of the probability density function in the documentation of type IV to f(x) (from p(x)) in order to improve consistency. - update of author information. Changes in version 1.1 (2017-07-17) Small changes: - changed (inappropriate) CR/LF line ending of configure.ac to LF line ending (reported by Prof Brian Ripley). Changes in version 1.0 (2017-03-03) Small changes: - added registration of native routines (in reaction to recent CRAN check notes), thereby fixing wrong (lower case) PACKAGE argument (reported by Kurt Hornik). - changed sample size in example of pearsonMSC in order to reduce run-time. Changes in version 0.98 (2016-06-06) Bug fixes: - implementation and documentation of type V has been corrected. It was mentioned in the documentation that the scale parameter corresponds to the reciprocal value of the usual scale parameter (aka rate) of the inverse gamma distribution, but this was neither implemented correctly nor was the probability density function (from the help page) right. The scale parameter now corresponds to the usual scale parameter of the inverse gamma distribution, the implementation and the documentation have been corrected and adapted. (Many thanks to Andrew Beck for reporting!) Small changes: - replaced CHANGES with NEWS (and using corresponding markup). - added many importFrom directives to NAMESPACE and replaced calls to require with calls to requireNamespace (as suggested by package CHECK). - removed CITATION file (which would be equal to default citation info). Changes in version 0.97 (2013-11-20) Bug fixes: - bug fix (and speedup) of random number generation for Pearson type IV distributions. (Many thanks to Dave DeMers for reporting!). Changes in version 0.96 (2013-10-02) Small changes: - dispensable file 'LICENSE' removed (due to check NOTE). - dispensable use of ':::' removed (due to check NOTE). Changes in version 0.95 (2013-01-11) Small changes: - calls of (deprecated and soon-to-be-defunct) function 'is.real' replaced with calls of 'is.double' (reported by Prof Brian Ripley). Changes in version 0.94 (2012-09-25) Bug fixes: - ensure that functions to be minimized by nlminb do not return NA or NaN any more (by replacing NA/NaN results with +Inf) because nlminb does not work reliably with NA/NaN function values. (Many thanks to Prof Brian Ripley for pointing this out) - bug fix of pearsonDiagram (for max.skewness>=32 [squared.skewness=TRUE] and max.skewnewss>=sqrt(32) [squared.skewness=FALSE]) New features: - new function pearsonMSC for model selection purposes. (suggestion/wish from Dr. Ross Larsen Ph.D) Changes in version 0.93 (2012-04-02) Small changes: - caching of package gsl's availability status removed, because using 'installed.packages' or 'require' in .onAttach should be avoided (as NOTEd in check results since [about] R-2.15.0). Slow down should be negligible. - correction of link to Heinrich's working paper Changes in version 0.92 (2010-04-23) Bug fixes: - NAs and NaNs were not handled properly in ppearsonIV and qpearsonIV - (documentation) bug fix: typo in the density function for Pearson type VI (only pdf-manual) many thanks to Young Hwa Sung for reporting the typo! Changes in version 0.91 (2009-09-29) Bug fixes: - autoconf/configure mechanism was messed up -> no MacOS X binary on CRAN Many thanks to Simon Urbanek for his valuable help (and autoconf lesson)! Changes in version 0.90 (2009-09-16) New features - initial release
