This blog is updated daily.
A general description is here.
The version of LAPACK included in the sources has been updated to
3.6.0. (It does not include most of the deprecated routines removed in
that version. For the time being, the deprecated routines ‘dgegv’ and
‘dggsvd’ _are_ included as they are used by current packages.)
The version of LAPACK included in the sources has been updated to 3.6.0, including those ‘deprecated’ routines which were previously included.
The ‘format’ method for ‘object_size’ objects now also accepts “binary” units such as ‘"KiB"’ and e.g., ‘"Tb"’. (Partly from PR#16649)
Avoid ‘parallel’ dependency on ‘stats’ for port choice and random number seeds. (PR#16668)
The ‘data.frame’ method of ‘rbind()’ construction ‘row.names’ works better in borderline integer cases, but may change the names assigned. (PR#16666)
The ‘data.frame’ method of ‘rbind()’ gains an optional argument ‘stringsAsFactors’ (instead of only depending on ‘getOption("stringsAsFactors")’).
‘as.data.frame.vector(*, row.names=*)’ no longer produces ‘corrupted’ data frames from row names of incorrect length, but rather warns about them. This will become an error.
