Many functions have become deprecated as of popdemo_1.0-0 (meaning they will stop working at some point in the future). In most cases, this is because functions needed to be re-named. For now the older function names will work but issue a warning, but you should use the new function names wherever possible. Please update your code, and I'm sorry for the inconvenience!
Most deprecated functions needed to be renamed because they included a period in the function name: the new function names don't use periods, which is a better approach for playing nicely with the S3 object-oriented system (see Hadley Wickham's OO field guide for more info). These are:
Cohen.cumulative | now called CohenD |
convergence.time | now called convt |
inertia.tfa | now called tfa_inertia |
inertia.tfamatrix | now called tfam_inertia |
inertia.tfsens | now called tfs_inertia |
inertia.tfsensmatrix | now called tfsm_inertia |
is.matrix_ergodic | now called isErgodic |
is.matrix_irreducible | now called isIrreducible |
is.matrix_primitive | now called isPrimitive |
Keyfitz.delta | now called KeyfitzD |
projection.distance | now called projectionD |
Some other functions have been renamed to keep consistency with new functions, and also to further avoid problems with S3 methods by making sure classes and functions don't have the same names:
tfa | now called tfa_lambda |
tfamatrix | now called tfam_lambda |
tfsens | now called tfs_lambda |
tfsensmatrix | now called tfsm_lambda |
Some functions have been made internal (they're "hidden" but you can still use them):
minCS | now called .minCS |
tf | now called .tf |
Two functions are deprecated because they have been merged into one:
reactivity,firststepatt | now handled by reac. |
Before, reactivity handled first-timestep amplification and
firststepatt handled first-timestep attenuation. This is silly, because
a projection EITHER amplifies OR attenuates in the first timestep. Desptite
the semantics, reac now deals with both amplification and attenuation
in the first timestep, everything that was calculable in the previous two
functions is also calculable in the one new function.
