mix.ccurves now doesn't fail if a provided cc.dir folder does not yet exist
mix.ccurves now saves the calibration curves with values separated by a single space, not by a tab
as per Kurt Hornik's e-mail, added a sentinal "_PACKAGE" to the documentation
as per Prof. Brian Ripley's e-mail, removed permille sign of draw.D14C function as graphics devices such as of OSX do not always draw them
some minor changes to how postbomb dates are treated and plotted
rintcal 0.6.3
further enhancements to functions ccurves, calibrate and caldist, especially for young dates close to the prebomb limits
updated vignette
rintcal 0.6.2
a bug in ccurves causing problems with plotting and cc=4 has been corrected
rintcal 0.6.1
calibration of dates close to 0 14C BP now uses both prebomb and postbomb curves by default (if postbomb is provided)
rintcal 0.6.0
the files containing the NH and SH postbomb curves are now printed with the youngest cal BP years at the top
0 BC/AD (which does not exist) is now dealt with better
added a function draw.contamination
the calibrate function now deals better with BC/AD (e.g., new items can be added afterward in the expected locations)
mix.ccurves now handles varying offsets (mean and/or uncertainty)
intcal.data now has more colours, returns datasets (invisibly) and can plot selected datasets
rintcal 0.5.3
added a function draw.D14C to draw the D14C data together with the calibration curve.
added an option draw.base to draw.dates
rintcal 0.5.2
the IntCal20 curves and their underpinning data are now available through a json file (code kindly contributed by Christopher Bronk Ramsey, University of Oxford)
calibrate now plots better when working in BC/AD
rintcal 0.5.0
added a function point.estimates to calculate the mode, median, weighted mean and midpoint of a calibrated distribution (after a suggestion by Alexandra Rouillard)
reading and writing of large files should now go faster if the data.table R package is installed (which doesn't seem to work well on some Macs)
added functions F14C.D14C, D14C.F14C, age.F14C, F14C.age and contaminate
draw.ccurve now adds a legend if more than one calibration curve is plotted
draw.dates should behave a bit faster and draw more consistently sized distributions
added legacy 'calibration' data from Arnold & Libby 1951 (Science 113, 111-120)
Calibrated dates of postbomb dates are now drawn better
rintcal 0.4.2
made draw.dates more flexible, e.g. can now rotate axes
rintcal 0.4.1
updated the documentation to include value entries for each function
ensured that no data is written into userspace by default, as per CRAN policies
enhanced functions to set par values more gracefully
rintcal 0.4.0
The C14.lim option to specify axis limits in the calibrate() function now works as expected
renamed the package from IntCal to rintcal, to highlight the fact that this package is not officially affiliated with the IntCal Working Group
added a function l.calib to calibrate multiple dates or calendar years
enhanced the options of the t model (Christen and Perez 2016) as alternative for the normal distribution
IntCal 0.3.1
added an option ccdir to provide alternative locations of the calibration curves
added a function new.ccdir(), which copies the package's calibration curves into a specified folder
C14.lim now works if 0 is included as minimum 14C age
IntCal 0.3.0
updated to the updated postbomb curves (now both yearly and monthly), published by Hua et al. 2021
repaired problems with depths and calheights in draw.dates
draw.ccurve now plots correct label when BCAD
c14.lim now estimated correctly when a second curve is added
IntCal 0.2.3
draw.ccurve now plots the correct label when using BCAD, and plots depths at the expected heights
draw.dates now plots multiple dates at the expected heights (with more precise dates peaking higher)
corrected the Rmd files which had erroneous formatting and some confusing examples
IntCal 0.2.2
in mix.curves(), calibration curves are now written to a temporary directory by default, as per CRAN policies
calibrate function now deals better with postbomb dates
added clam's function calBP.14C to find IntCal C14 ages corresponding to cal BP ages
added function glue.ccurves for gluing prebomb and postbomb calibration curves
added a warning/error to calibrate() for dates truncated by or outside the calibration curve
updated the vignettes
IntCal 0.2.1
added new function list.curves
Shortened the functions copyCalibrationCurve and draw.CalibrationCurves to the shorter and more consistent ccurve and draw.ccurve
ccurve is now more flexible with the names of the calibration curves
draw.ccurve can now plot another curve on its own righthand axis scale (handy when mixing pre- and postbomb curves)
new functions calibrate, caldist and hpd, copied and modified from the clam R package
IntCal 0.2.0
added a function intcal.data to plot the data underlying the IntCal curves
copyCalibrationCurve can now copy more of the curves
new function draw.calibration curve to draw the calibration curves (one or two), or to add curves to an existing plot)
IntCal 0.1.3
fixed issues with the DESCRIPTION file
IntCal 0.1.2
Added Rd files
Added some of the most relevant calibrated-related functions of the rbacon package (so that these can in time be deleted from that and other packages)
IntCal 0.1.1
fixed some errors in the description file
IntCal 0.1.0
first iteration of this R data package (originally put on github)
