This blog is updated daily.
A general description is here.
‘cbind()’ failed to detect some length mismatches with a mixture of time-series and non-time-series inputs.
The default LaTeX style file ‘Sweave.sty’ used by the ‘RweaveLatex’ driver no longer loads the obsolete ‘ae’ package; thanks to a report by Thomas Soeiro in PR#18271. Furthermore, it now skips ‘\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}’ for engines other than pdfTeX (if detected) or if the new ‘[nofontenc]’ option is used.
‘window(x, start, end)’ no longer wrongly signals “'start' cannot be after 'end'”, fixing PR#17527 and PR#18291.
‘deparse(..)’, ‘dump(..)’, and ‘dput(x, control = "all")’ now include control option ‘"digits17"’ which typically ensures 1:1 invertibility. New option ‘control = "exact"’ ensures numeric exact invertibility via ‘"hexNumeric"’.
