supportR 1.4.0.900

Development version, changes from preceding version are listed below:

• Function fix: Fixed issue with replace_non_ascii where if include_letters was set to FALSE a warning was still generated for non-ASCII letters when they were part of a larger string (e.g., "<non-ascii>xyz", etc.)
• Vignette update: separated the single package vignette into separate, smaller files that give a tutorial for groups of functions with similar use-cases (e.g., quality control, data visualization, etc.)

supportR 1.4.0 (2024-06-13)

Changes from preceding version are listed below

• New function: replace_non_ascii. Replaces non-ASCII characters with ASCII characters that are as visually similar as possible
• New function: count. Counts occurrences of each unique element in the provided vector
• New function: ordination. Generic function that creates either NMS or PCoA ordinations. Makes extensive use of the ... argument to greatly increase level of control user can expect over internal base R graphing functions. Supersedes nms_ord and pcoa_ord.
• Superseded functions: nms_ord and pcoa_ord are now superseded because they are special cases of ordination
• New function behavior: nms_ord and pcoa_ord now support modifying axis label text size and axis tickmark text size
• Began the process of adding units tests for most functions in the package. Users may notice some small cases where more informative errors/warnings are returned but generally this shouldn't change function behavior in an appreciable way

supportR 1.3.0 (2024-04-12)

Changes from preceding version are listed below

• New function: force_num. Coerces a vector to numeric and automatically silences any warnings due to coercing values to NA
• New function: safe_rename. Renames columns in a given dataframe by matching 'bad' names with 'good' names
• New function: tabularize_md. Converts a markdown file into a table that retains the nested structure of any headings in the file

supportR 1.2.0 (2023-08-22)

Changes from preceding version are listed below

• New function: name_vec. Creates a named vector of specified contents and names
• github_tree now supports excluding no directories from the folder tree (this is the default behavior now)
• New function behavior: num_check now accepts multiple column names/numbers to its col argument
• New function behavior: date_check now accepts multiple column names/numbers to its col argument
• Deprecated function: multi_num_check is now deprecated (with a warning) because it is a special case of num_check
• Deprecated function: multi_date_check is now deprecated (with a warning) because it is a special case of date_check

supportR 1.1.0 (2023-07-08)

Changes from preceding version are listed below

• New function: github_ls. Lists contents of specified GitHub repository either recursively or only top-level/specified folder
• New function: github_tree. Creates a file tree diagram for a specified GitHub repository
• Refined and clarified the package vignette
• pcoa_ord and nms_ord now include arguments for changing point size (pt_size) and opacity (pt_alpha; i.e., transparency). Changes to point size are reflected in the legend but changes to opacity are not reflected in the legend points
• Fixed a typo in the message returned by diff_check
• Added example in documentation for crop_tri
