fdth news

1.3-4 (2026-05-11) - Faria, J. C.

• Added testthat-based tests under tests/testthat/ (including checks for summary(..., format.classes = TRUE, pattern = "%.2f") using normal R strings, avoiding \% quoting issues from .Rd examples).
• quantile.fdt now returns a named numeric vector (for example, 25%, 50%, 75%), with tests and documentation updates for this behavior.
• Improved vignette didactics in vignettes/latex_fdt.Rnw with a quick-start section, a compact xtable::print arguments guide, reproducible categorical examples, and closing takeaways.
• Refactored mfv.default to return all modal values in multimodal cases.
• Refactored mfv.fdt to detect modal classes robustly and return multimodal results.
• Updated mfv.Rd with multimodal examples, including a deterministic non-adjacent modal-class case.
• Revised package documentation English in .Rd files for clarity and consistency.
• Refactored README.md to a modern style, added CRAN badges, and set lifecycle badge to stable.
• Added NEWS.md in Markdown format.
• Improvements were made to the documentation of the package and functions.

1.3-0 (2023-11-17) - Faria, J. C.

• Adjustment of files encoding as required by the CRAN.
• Adjustments and improvements were made to the documentation of the package and functions.

1.2-6 (2021-10-11) - Faria, J. C.

• The “na.omit” function, previously used in several methods of the package, has been removed. The main use was in the functions: “fdt.default”, “make.ft.multiple”, “fdt_cat.default”, “fdt_cat.matrix” and “fdt_cat.data.frame”.
• Added “na.rm” argument to methods associated with default FALSE. If you have NA values that can influence the structure of the table, the user will receive a error message.

1.2-5 (2020-04-17) - Allaman, I. B.

• Correction of wording of argument x in file fdt.Rd. Removed the snippet “or character/factor (‘fdt_cat’)”.
• The functions latex.fdt, latex.fdt_cat, latex.fdt_cat.multiple, print.latex.fdt and summary.latex.fdt was deprecated. Add the new class to the xtable function: xtable.fdt and xtable.fdt.multiple.
• Corrected bug in plot.fdt.default function, types “cdh” and “cdp”. The relative frequencies not was divide by h (amplitude of the class).
• Add news arguments in the plot.fdt.multiple: grouped - if the “by” argument is different from NULL, then the users have the option the to plot factors in a the same graphics; args.legend - a list with the same arguments of the legend function of the graphics package.

1.2-4 (2018-02-17) - Allaman, I. B.

• Only available on GitHub (under test)

• The documentation has been improved.

1.2-1 (2015-04-09) - Allaman, I. B.

• Ivan Bezerra Allaman has began to work in the project as co-author.
• Added the “by” argument to fdt_cat.data.frame function. As consequence, the print.fdt_cat.multiple, plot.fdt_cat.multiple, make.fdt_cat.multiple, fdt_cat.matrix functions were changed.
• Was added the latex.fdt_cat.multiple function to give suport the objects of the fdt_cat.multiple class.
• The Rd files make.fdt_cat.simple, make.fdt_cat.multiple, make.fdt.format.classes, make.fdt.multiple and make.fdt.simple were moved from the documentation.

1.2-0 (2014-10-13) - Faria, J. C.

• Thanks to Ivan B. Allaman to the bug fix of the function make.fdt.simple.R.
• It was added basic suport to categorical variables.
• Some bugs were corrected.

• plot.fdth.multiple: x11() was replaced by the portable way dev.new().
• The documentation has been deeply improved.
• Export LaTeX table of the frequency distribution table (latex.fdt).

1.1-7 (2012-04-02) - Faria, J. C.

• Cosmetic changes to meet the requirements of CRAN.

1.1-6 (2011-08-21) - Faria, J. C.

• The S3 methods print.fdt.default and print.fdt.multiple were improved.
