Families 2.0.2 April 2024

Function updates

Tests(): Correct warning message. Some IDs may be missing, e.g. ego without cousins has no IDs of cousins. Originally, ego was removed from the list of ego-cousin dyads. That caused vectors of unequal length and warning “longer object length is not a multiple of shorter object length”. That issue is resolved by including the ego-NA dyads. The change prevents unnecessary warnings in Db() and Alive()

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
