This release brings the package back to CRAN. The previous CRAN release was 1.2-0.
q (default domain 0 <= q <= 2)
instead of the Patil-Taillie beta profile on
-1 <= beta <= 1. The two profiles are linked by
q = beta + 1, but they are measured on different scales, so
numerical results differ from those of version 1.2-0.beta(), beta_plot(),
betaprime(), betaprime_plot(),
betasecond(), betasecond_plot(),
curvature(), curvature_plot(),
radius(), radius_plot(), arc(),
area() and ranking() are deprecated. They
issue a warning and return the corresponding Hill-number tool.alltools() returns a list and no longer draws plots.
export_plots() requires the output path in
file.hill_profile() evaluates the profile on any grid or set
of orders, including Inf; negative orders are available on
request.hill_derivative(), hill_curvature() and
hill_radius() use analytical first and second
derivatives.hill_cum() and hill_area() compute
cumulative integral functions and areas by the trapezoidal rule, with an
optional baseline.hill_total_change() reports changes in area between
consecutive rows.hill_surface(), hill_surface_plot() and
hill_surface_compare() compute, draw and compare
biodiversity surfaces over time, either as rotatable plotly
figures or as static perspective plots.
