hicp 0.6.1 (2024-07-23)

• Fixed a bug in the creation of the vignette on the r-release-windows-x86_64-flavor

hicp 0.6.0 (2024-07-19)

• Introduced the global options options("hicp.unbundle"=TRUE), options(hicp.coicop.version="ecoicop-hicp"), options(hicp.all.items.code="00")
• The functions is.coicop(), level(), parent(), child(), aggregate(), and tree() now have the argument settings, which can be used to define a COICOP version (coicop.version), the all-items code (all.items.code), and how bundle codes are treated (unbundle)
• The function is.coicop() now accepts different COICOP versions. The functions level(), parent(), child(), aggregate(), and tree() only process valid COICOP codes and the all-items code.
• Fixed the behavior of aggregate() when the functions jevons(), carli(), and harmonic() are used and no weights w0 are provided
• Fixed a bug in the function chain(), which occurred when the unchained series started in January and by=12. In this case, the index reference period (with value 100) was not correctly detected
• Updated documentation and tests accordingly

hicp 0.5.1 (2024-06-02)

• Fixed a bug in the functions jevons(), carli(), and harmonic(), which checked the weights w0 that were, however, not required by the function
• Fixed a bug in the function chain(), which occurred when NA's were present in the index where the index value was set to 100 (instead of NA)
• Updated documentation and tests accordingly

hicp 0.5.0 (2024-05-27)

• New functions jevons(), carli(), and harmonic() available
• Function aggregate() now allows calculation of user-defined aggregates even if not all parts of an aggregate are present in the data (settings$add.exact=FALSE)
• Function aggregate() no longer requires any weights w0 or wt if the underlying index function does not require weights

hicp 0.4.2 (2024-02-28)

• Function link() now returns a matrix instead of a data.table
• Function convert() now returns a named vector instead of a data.table
• Updated references to the new HICP Methodological Manual
• Cleaned code for easier reference to other package functions

hicp 0.4.1 (2024-02-04)

• Updated description
• Replaced \dontrun with \donttest in examples

hicp 0.4.0

• Initial CRAN submission.
• First Github release.
