carat 2.0 (2021-09-23)

• Some modifications were added to Remark Index to fixed some issues, including modifications in functions of print.carandom, and print.careval.

carat 1.5 (2021-07-25)

• We standardized the usual function to check if an object has from a specific class in the function compRand, using is().

• We corrected the man pages of the corresponding randomization functions, such as PocSimMIN.

• The underlying S3 methods are not exported to users.
