• New function elementapply_byname() applies a function to an element of a matrix specified by row and col arguments.
• Breaking changes:
  • elementproduct_byname() changed to hadamardproduct_byname() to avoid name collision with elementapply_byname().
  • elementquotient_byname() changed to quotient_byname().
  • elementpow_byname() changed to pow_byname().
  • elementexp_byname() changed to exp_byname().

matsbyname 0.4.3 (2019-01-02)

• complete_rows_cols() is now agnostic about the order of columns in fillrow and the order of rows in fillcol.

matsbyname 0.4.2 (2019-01-02)

• sort_rows_cols() now allows entries in roworder and colorder that are not presently names of rows or columns. Extraneous names are silently ignored.

matsbyname 0.4.1 (2019-01-01)

• Adding code coverage badge.

matsbyname 0.4.0 (2018-12-27)

• Attempted first release to CRAN. (Failed.)

matsbyname 0.3.8 (2018-12-21)

• fractionize_byname() now correctly handles non-square matrices.

matsbyname 0.3.7 (2018-12-02)

• hatinv_byname() now handles 0 values in input vectors gracefully. By default, 0 values become .Machine$double.xmax.
  To choose a different value, set new argument inf_becomes to a numerical value. To suppress default behavior, set inf_becomes = NULL.

matsbyname 0.3.6 (2018-11-25)

• iszero_byname() now checks if values of abs(a) are <= tol. (Previously, iszero_byname() tested with < tol.) This change allows the zero matrix to pass the test when tol = 0, as we would want.
• Reverted equal_byname() to use isTRUE(all.equal()) when checking for equality.
• New function identical_byname() checks for exact equality using identical.
• Now up to 672 tests.

matsbyname 0.3.5 (2018-11-18)

• Now using identical() instead of isTRUE(all.equal()) for equal_byname() function.

matsbyname 0.3.4 (2018-11-18)

• Added new function hatinv_byname().
• Documented defaults for arguments to count_* functions.
• Now importing pipe operator from magrittr package at global level

matsbyname 0.3.3 (2018-10-29)

• Fix version number on pkgdown website.
• Updated many details of pkgdown website for better user navigation.

matsbyname 0.3.2 (2018-10-29)

• First release to CRAN didn't work.
• Added online documentation at github with pkgdown.

matsbyname 0.3.1 (2018-08-25)

• Updated to new version of Roxygen which changed line breaks in some .Rd files.
• First release to CRAN.

matsbyname 0.3.0 (2018-06-20)

• Removed parallelism features introduced in v0.2.6. Detailed timings revealed that the parallel code was slower than single-thread code. This topic may be revisited in the future. But for now, it is best to remove the multicore code. So there are no longer any mc.cores arguments to matsbyname functions.

matsbyname 0.2.9 (2018-05-24)

• Beginnings of S3 class matbyname. Not sure if I want to keep it.
• Fixed an argument name error exposed by check.

matsbyname 0.2.8 (2018-05-17)

• New functions all_byname() and any_byname() make logical tests easy.
• New function replaceNaN_byname() replaces NaN entries with a value (default is 0).

matsbyname 0.2.7 (2018-04-15)

• Refactored most *col*_byname functions to call their respective *row*_byname functions with a transposed argument, thereby simplifying code.
• Fixed a bug caused by the above refactoring. In select_cols_byname, a NULL result terminated the executing thread.
• Added new function replaceNaNWith0.
• Added new functions count_vals_byname, count_vals_inrows_byname, and count_vals_incols_byname that return the number of matrix entries that meet a criterion for the entire matrix, in each row, and in each column, respectively.
• Improvements to documentation.
• Now up to 646 passing tests.

matsbyname 0.2.6 (2018-03-16)

New multicore functionality available in most *_byname functions.

• New functions set_mc_cores and get_mc_cores to set and get package-wide mc.cores variable. Default is 1, so all functions work as previously unless mc.cores is more than 1.

• Alternatively, specify the mc.cores argument of any function to specify the number of cores to be used for an individual calculation. Default is get_mc_cores(). A useful approach is to set_mc_cores(detectCores(logical = FALSE)).

Suggested usage

• sum_byname(list(1,2,3,4), list(1,2,3,4), mc.cores = 4) to send each sum to a different core.

• set_mc_cores(4L); sum_byname(list(1,2,3,4), list(1,2,3,4), mc.cores = 4); set_mc_cores(1L) to do the same thing and set the package-wide value back to 1.

matsbyname 0.2.5 (2018-03-13)

New *apply_byname functions enable API improvements

• These are API changes, but they shouldn't affect any existing code, because calls to binary functions will "just work."

• naryapply_byname: enables ... arguments

• naryapplylogical_byname: enables logical functions

• Add ... arguments for functions that deserve them.

New functions with ... arguments including

• sum_byname

• matrixproduct_byname

• elementproduct_byname

• mean_byname

• geometricmean_byname

• equal_byname

• samestructure_byname

New and_byname(...) function that provides logical and "by name."

• The infrastructure is in place to add other logical functions in the future: or_byname, xor_byname, and not_byname.

matsbyname 0.2.4 (2018-03-08)

• Preparing for submission to CRAN. Changed many variable names in the APIs to standardize on "a" and "b" as names for matrix or list of matrices arguments.

matsbyname 0.2.3 (2018-03-08)

• Eliminate dependence (temporarily) on matsindf. Doing so allows matsbyname to be submitted first to CRAN. Also, Travis builds are now successful, having eliminated the circular dependence between matsbyname and matsindf.

matsbyname 0.2.2 (2018-03-02)

• New function elementpow_byname raises all elements of a matrix to a power.

matsbyname 0.2.1 (2018-02-28)

• complete_rows_cols now accepts fillrow and fillcol arguments. These arguments can be used (instead of the fill argument) to specify the values of filled rows and columns when completing a matrix. When conflicts arise, precedence among the fill* arguments is fillrow then fillcol then fill.

matsbyname 0.2.0 (2018-02-23)

• Name change to matsbyname.

byname 0.1.9 (2018-02-14)

• Now preserving names of list items in *apply_byname functions.

byname 0.1.8 (2018-02-14)

• Added applybyname vignette.

byname 0.1.7 (2018-02-14)

• unaryapply_byname and binaryapply_byname now have .FUNdots arguments through which arguments to FUN should be passed. Use of the ... argument is no longer possible. ... is reserved for future changes to allow an unlimited number of arguments to some functions, such as sum_byname.
• The implementation of the .FUNdots argument fixed a bug where calculations were incorrect when lists of matrices were stored in cells of a data frame. Distribution of arguments (such as margin = c(1, 2)) across rows of a data frame was not happening properly.

byname 0.1.6 (2018-02-08)

• New functions cumsum_byname, cumprod_byname, and cumapply_byname.
• Miscellaneous improvements to documentation of many functions.

byname 0.1.5 (2018-02-01)

• New functions elementlog_byname and elementexp_byname.

byname 0.1.4 (2018-01-31)

• New functions unaryapply_byname and binaryapply_byname. These functions have a FUN argument that allows an arbitrary function to be applied _byname to matrices or data frames containing matrices.
  • unaryapply_byname is for unary functions such as rowsums_byname.
  • binaryapply_byname is for binary functions such as sum_byname.
• unaryapply_byname and binaryapply_byname are used by all _byname functions internally.
• Now conducting 412 tests across the entire package. All tests are passing, indicating that the unaryapply and binaryapply functions are very solid.

byname 0.1.3 (2018-01-27)

• Fixed a vector vs. list bug that caused failure of binary _byname functions when one argument was a list and the other was a non-constant numeric vector.
• Simplified complete_rows_cols_byname. It no longer takes a names argument.
• Various other fixes.

byname 0.1.2 (2018-01-23)

• Added the following functions:
  • mean_byname: returns the arithmetic mean of corresponding entries of two matrices
  • geometricmean_byname: returns the geometric mean of corresponding entries of two matrices
  • logarithmicmean_byname: returns the logarithmic mean of corresponding entries of two matrices
• Fixed a bug whereby calling setrownames_byname and setcolnames_byname on a constant would fail. It now produces a 1x1 matrix with named rows or columns.
• Miscellaneous improvements to documentation of many functions.

byname 0.1.1 (2018-01-21)

• Added the following functions:
  • rowprod_byname: returns a column vector with row products (product of all entries in a row)
  • colprod_byname: returns a row vector with column products (product of all entries in a column)
  • prodall_byname: returns a numeric of the product of all entries in a matrix
• Miscellaneous improvements to documentation of many functions.
