cbcTools 0.5.2

• Bug fix in checking input settings (#34)

cbcTools 0.5.1

• Patch to fix a joining issue in the join_profiles() function (#27)

cbcTools 0.5.0 (2023-07-12)

• Further revisions to the method argument in the cbc_design() function.
• Added the "random" and "dopt" methods.
• Added restrictions so that orthogonal designs cannot use the label argument or restricted profile sets (as either of these would result in a non-orthogonal design).

cbcTools 0.4.0 (2023-06-30)

• Adjustments made to the method argument in the cbc_design() function in preparation for potentially adding new design methods.
• Added the "orthogonal" option for generating orthogonal designs.

cbcTools 0.3.4 (2023-06-13)

• Another small bug fix in cbc_design() related to #16 where factor level ordering for categorical variables were being mis-ordered.
• Updated how the method argument is handled by default in cbc_design() to be more flexible (anticipating other methods in the future).
• Added keep_db_error arg to cbc_design().

cbcTools 0.3.3 (2023-06-02)

• Bug fix in cbc_design() where factor level ordering for categorical variables were being mis-ordered.
• Added additional input check for appropriate priors in cbc_design().

cbcTools 0.3.2 (2023-05-23)

• Modify how restrictions are defined in the cbc_restrict() function to allow users to provide expressions.

cbcTools 0.3.1

• Add cbc_restrict() function to improve UI for adding restrictions to profiles.
• Remove previous approach to including restrictions in cbc_profiles().
• Add new test cases

cbcTools 0.3.0 (2023-05-09)

• Bug fix: modify code in cbc_design() to avoid duplicate choice sets for the same respondents; addresses #7.
• Bug fix: modify code in cbc_design() to allow Bayesian D-efficient designs with restricted profile sets; addresses #10 and #9.

cbcTools 0.2.0 (2023-02-28)

• Added a startup message when the package is loaded.
• Updates for compatibility with logitr version 1.0.1.
• Updated DESCRIPTION and CITATION to remove redundancy in title.
• Updated documentation of returned values in several functions.

cbcTools 0.1.0

• Added initial integration with {idefix} packages for Bayesian D-efficient designs

cbcTools 0.0.5

• Updates for compatibility with logitr version 0.8.0.

cbcTools 0.0.4

• Updates for compatibility with logitr version 0.7.0.

cbcTools 0.0.3

• Modified the argument of cbc_profiles() to ... so that the user no longer needs to create a separate list to define the attributes and levels.
• Modified the arguments for the randN() and randLN() functions to mean and sd.
• Improved printing of counts in cbc_balance() and cbc_overlap().
• Updated names of random parameter models to match that of future logitr v0.6.0.
• Updated documentation and examples for all functions.
• Adding piping example to readme.

cbcTools 0.0.2

• Added support for conditional levels in cbc_profiles()

cbcTools 0.0.1

• Added a NEWS.md file to track changes to the package.
