simTool 1.1.7.9000
- placeholder for next development-cycle
simTool 1.1.7 (2020-09-22)
- During a replication data is generated once and then
used by all data analyzing functions. This was already
the case under the default setting where the generated
data sets are stored by eval_tibbles() and is now also
the case were the generated data is discarded by the
eval_tibbles() function.
simTool 1.1.6 (2020-05-17)
Misc:
- internal updated for dplyr 1.0.0 and vctrs 0.3.0
- internal correction based on lintr-findings
simTool 1.1.5 (2020-03-15)
Misc:
- removing functions expandGrid() and evalGrid() (which were marked as deprecated in version 1.1.0) and the corresponding dependencies with reshape and plyr
- retrieve the RNG kind after parallel computation
simTool 1.1.4 (2019-09-14)
Misc:
- adaptions to address the new release of tidyr 1.0.0
Note:
- due to https://github.com/r-lib/vctrs/issues/530 reshaping the simulation results can be extremely slow. That costly reshaping will not happen if the parameter simplify is set to FALSE in simTool::eval_tibbles.
simTool 1.1.3 (2019-03-22)
Misc:
- test cases update to address the new release of dplyr 0.8.0
simTool 1.1.2 (2019-02-02)
Misc:
- using a workaround in examples and vignette to circumvent a bug introduced in purrr 0.3.0 (https://github.com/tidyverse/purrr/issues/629)
simTool 1.1.1 (2019-01-13)
Misc:
- .truth-functionality added, i.e. the parameters of the data generation (or alternatively a column of the data generating matrix with the name .truth) is passed to the the data analyzing functions, see the vignette for details
- Unnesting of the simulation results improved
simTool 1.1.0 (2018-03-26)
Misc:
- Refactoring in order to remove the dependency on reshape and plyr
- The simulation itself is now a tibble instead of a list of lists
simTool 1.0.3 (2014-10-25)
Misc:
- Adapted how libraries are loaded onto the cluster
simTool 1.0.2 (2014-10-15)
New Features:
- The convenient function meanAndNormCI added
Misc:
- Two parameter renamed (post.proc to summary.fun and value.fun to convert.result.fun).
Of course, renaming parameters is one of the worst things one can do. On the other
hand, only very few users will be affected by these changes.
simTool 1.0.1
New Features:
- summarizing functions process also logical results (not only numeric)
Misc:
- HTML vignette (LaTeX not necessary anymore)
- additional documentation (static pdf in JSS style)
simTool 1.0 (2014-07-08)
Initial release
- parallel computing via parallel and the ideas of L'Ecuyer 1999, 2002 for random numbers
- fallback capability
- text progress bar
- estimation of the number of replications per hour
