In R-Computing-Lab/discord: Functions for Discordant Kinship Modeling

discord 1.2.4

• Added a new vignette demonstrating ways to visualize discordant kinship data using the ggplot2 package.
• Added a new vignette demonstrating how to conduct a power analysis.
• Vectorizing discord_data() to improve performance.
• Adding tests to ensure comparability between optimized and non-optimized versions of discord_data().
• Adding discord_between_model() to get the between-family model
• Added unique filter for discord_data() to ensure that the data is not duplicated.
• Added tests for categorical variables in discord_data().
• Made hex sticker more generalizable

discord 1.2.3.1

• More mild improvements to documentation
• Added hex sticker

discord 1.2.3

• improved documentation
• allow for kin to not share their common environment
• fixed vector of relatedness values not behaving as expected
• increased test coverage to 82.39 from 47ish.

discord 1.2.2

• Added a new vignette demonstrating the use of the potter dataset from the BGmisc package to create and use other kinship links.
• Copy edited existing vignettes

discord 1.2.1

• Enhanced categorical variable handling

Bug Fixes

• Fixed error when prepping discordant data as a result of mismatched column names between user-supplied data and internally manipulated data. See commit fc1ed9f for more details.
• Fixed error where discord_data() returned multiple rows per kin-pair when the 'id' column had non-unique values. As a result, the new default for 'id' is NULL. See commit 87d5b3b6 for more details.

Minor improvements and fixes

• Added error message for missing data passed to discord_data() for more easy debugging.

discord 1.1.0

Minor improvements and fixes

• Added unit tests ensuring regression results are consistent under multiple conditions (e.g., with and without sex & race arguments)
• Removed dplyr, rlang, purrr, magrittr, janitor, and broom dependencies

discord 1.0.0

• Added a NEWS.md file to track changes to the package.
• Combined the functions kinsim1 and kinsim_multi into kinsim to simplify simulations.
• Revised discord_data and discord_regression to support functional programming and the tidyverse principles.

discord 0.1

• Initial release
