Changes in version 1.8.4                        

There is no changes in this version, which was published to reclaim
ownership and take the package out of ORPHANED state (issue #23).

                         Changes in version 1.8                         

Changes

o Unit tests are now run through testthat o Minor fixes in man pages and
README file o Now depends on rngtools >= 1.3 o The result list gains an
attribute 'doRNG_version' that contains the version of doRNG that was
used, based on doRNGversion(). NB: this is not necessarily the same as
the version of the installed package. o Added the following global
option 'doRNG.rng_change_warning_skip'. See ?%dorng% (issue #14). o
Moved dependency on pkgmaker to Suggests to make installation lighter
(issue #10).

Bug fixes

o Enabled running %dorng% loops within a package (incorporating the
solution proposed by Elizabeth Byerly in PR#3) o Fixed error with NULL
iteration results when setting 'rng' attribute (issue #9) o Fixed error
when using unamed foreach arguments (issue #8) o Fixed
non-reproducibility issue when the .Random.seed is not yet initialized,
e.g., when the session starts and the RNG has not been used yet (issue
#12) o Fixed runtime error when package is not attached (issue #13)

                        Changes in version 1.6.2                        

Bug fixes

o Non reproducible %dorng% loop when doRNG is registered over doSEQ
(Issue #1 reported by Brenton Kenkel). Actually due to %dorng% not
restoring the RNG (to state + 1) when doRNG is registered over doSEQ. o
%dorng% was not working properly on loops of length one (Issue #2)

                  Changes in version 1.6 (2014-03-07)                   

Changes

o doRNG now depends on the package pkgmaker (>= 0.20)

Bug fixes

o Check error due number of cores used. Now limited to 2 in examples,
vignette and unit test.

                  Changes in version 1.5 (2012-11-07)                   

Changes

o doRNG now depends on the package pkgmaker (>= 0.9) o improved vignette
o most of the general RNG utilities have been incorporated in a new
package called rngtools.

                 Changes in version 1.4.1 (2012-05-25)                  

Changes

o when the current RNG was L'Ecuyer-CMRG, unseeded loops now use the
current RNG stream as for the first stream in the RNG sequence and #
Changes the current RNG to the next RNG stream of the last stream in the
sequence.

Bug fixes

o fix error "'iter' not found" due to # Changes in foreach package
dependencies -- that was announced by Rich Calaway. o loops seeded with
set.seed and .options.RNG were not reproducible when current RNG was
L'Ecuyer-CMRG (reported by Zhang Peng) o separate unseeded loops were
sharing most of their streams, when current RNG was L'Ecuyer-CMRG the
RNG seed. o nested/conditional loops were crashing with a bad error.
They are still not supported but the error message is nicer and a work
around has been added to the vignette (reported by Chanhee Yi and Zhang
Peng).

                        Changes in version 1.2.3                        

Bug fixes

o fixed error when running a %dorng% loop on a fresh session, with no
parallel backend registered.

Changes

o improved vignette o added more unit tests o changed the name of the
RNG attribute on result of %dorng% looops from 'RNG' to 'rng'. It now
contains the whole sequence of RNG seeds, instead of only the first one.
o RNGseq now accepts a list or a matrix describing the whole sequence of
seeds. See vignette for more details. o %dorng% loops can be seeded with
a complete sequence of seeds passed as a list, a matrix, or an object
with attribute 'rng', e.g. the results of %dorng% loops. See vignette
for more details.

                 Changes in version 1.2.2 (2012-03-29)                  

Bug fixes

o separate %dorng% loops were using the same seed.

New features

o add unit tests o first seed is set as an attribute of the loop's
result

Changes

o function doRNGseed now returns the seed to use for the first
iteration. o RNGseq now change the current RNG state if called with no
seed specific.

Defunct

o removed function CMRGseed

                         Changes in version 1.2                         

Bug fixes

o An error was thrown if using %dorng% loops before using any random
generator. Thanks to Eric Lehmann for reporting this.

Changes

o add vignette o use package doParallel in examples

                  Changes in version 1.1 (2011-11-29)                   

Changes

o use R core RNG "L'Ecuyer-CMRG" and the parallel package, instead of
the implementation provided by the rstream package.
