LinkedMatrix 1.4.0.9000

LinkedMatrix 1.4.0 (2020-05-22)

• Follow [Bioconductor S4 practices][2]. If you have used new() to create ColumnLinkedMatrix and RowLinkedMatrix instances, please use the ColumnLinkedMatrix() and RowLinkedMatrix() constructor functions instead.
• Drop defunct cbind.RowLinkedMatrix and rbind.ColumnLinkedMatrix methods.
• Update citation instructions.
• Use inherits(., *) instead of class(.) == * (R4 compat).
• Use tinytest instead of testthat.

LinkedMatrix 1.3.1 (2018-08-06)

• Fix rownames() (for RowLinkedMatrix) or colnames() (for ColumnLinkedMatrix) returning NULL if first node does not have dimnames, but other nodes do. Missing entries will be denoted empty string, just like in base dimnames().
• Do not exclude NULL when checking if rownames (for ColumnLinkedMatrix) or colnames (for RowLinkedMatrix) do not match.

LinkedMatrix 1.3.0 (2018-01-09)

• Add [crochet][1] subsetting and replacement support.
• Add generic as.ColumnLinkedMatrix and as.RowLinkedMatrix for easy creation of LinkedMatrix objects from lists of matrix-like objects without do.call.
• Warn if rownames (for ColumnLinkedMatrix) or colnames (for RowLinkedMatrix) do not match.
• Implement str method.
• Implement is.matrix method.
• Slight performance improvements in nodes methods.
• New sort parameter in index() which is set by default.
• Add examples.

LinkedMatrix 1.2.0 (2016-09-01)

• Fix wrong order in result when subsetting using unordered positive integers.
• Add i and j parameters in index to only generate entries for those indexes.
• Various subsetting optimizations.

LinkedMatrix 1.1.0 (2016-03-07)

• Add LinkedMatrix constructor that creates either a ColumnLinkedMatrix or RowLinkedMatrix (controlled by linkedBy) of certain dimensions and of certain type.
• Add rbind for RowLinkedMatrix and cbind for ColumnLinkedMatrix.
• Remove apply and derivative functions to keep the package minimal.
• Change length method to behave similarly to length for matrices.
• Export nNodes function to get the number of nodes.
• Only allow matrix-like objects with matching row or column dimensions (same number of rows in case of ColumnLinkedMatrix and same number of columns in case of RowLinkedMatrix) when creating linked matrices.

LinkedMatrix 1.0.0 (2015-10-22)
