Ecdat 0.4-2 (Release date:
2022-10-13)
- Updated “terrorism” to 2020.
Ecdat 0.4-1 (Release date:
2022-07-01)
- Replaced non-breaking spaces that used Latin-1 encoding with ” ” in
4 “demoFiles/NIPA6.16*.csv” files, because the said non-breaking spaces
were not valid in UTF-8 and were rejected by a development version of
R.
Ecdat 0.4-0 (Release date:
2022-06-14)
- Adds new datasets “USnewspapers”” and “USPS”” (US Postal Service)
while adding federal government budget data to “USGDPpresidents”.
Ecdat 0.3-9 (Release date:
2020-11-01)
- Deletes ~demoFiles/*_data.xls, because they were used to test
Ecfun::financialDataFiles and Ecfun::readFinancialDataFiles, and those
two functions were removed, because they used gdata, which was not being
maintained, and the work required to maintain them exceeded the current
need of the maintainer.
Ecdat 0.3-6 (Release date:
2020-02-08)
- Adds variables popM, popYr, GDP_B, and GDPyr to data set
“nuclearWeaponStates”.
Ecdat 0.3-5 (Release date:
2019-12-05)
- Corrects the description of Crime$density to read, “hundreds of
people per square mile” from “people per square mile”. Thanks to
Yungfong “Frank” Tang for identifying this error and confirming the
needed correction.
Ecdat 0.3-4 (Release date:
2019-11-05)
- Adds variable ‘firstTestYr’ to ‘nuclearWeaponStates’. It also
corrects an error in the ‘Mroz’ data set, in that “work” had the names
of the levels incorrectly swapped.
Ecdat 0.3-3
- Adds data set “nuclearWeaponStates”, which might be used to model
the probability distribution of the time to the next new nuclear weapon
state.
