Changes in version 0.3.2.9000                      

                 Changes in version 0.3.2 (2023-05-04)                  

Fix for CRAN checks.

                 Changes in version 0.3.1 (2023-04-02)                  

  - biginteger() now accepts strings with leading zeros (#37).
  - Empty strings are now correctly treated as missing data (i.e.,
    return NA).
  - Fix for CRAN checks.

                 Changes in version 0.3.0 (2021-10-15)                  

  - New seq.bignum_vctr() for generating sequences of biginteger or
    bigfloat (#30).

  - To suppress lossy cast warnings, you should now use
    suppressWarnings() (#29).
    
      - If using R 4.1+, we recommend suppressWarnings(expr, classes =
        "bignum_warning_cast_lossy").
      - Compatible with rlang 1.0.0.

  - vignette("operations") has been removed and this documentation has
    been moved to man topics.

                 Changes in version 0.2.2 (2021-09-21)                  

  - Adapted tests for testthat 3.1.0 (#27).

                 Changes in version 0.2.1 (2021-06-17)                  

  - format() no longer checks for misspelled arguments. This previously
    caused issues when storing a bignum vector inside a data.frame or
    data.table (#25).

                 Changes in version 0.2.0 (2021-06-13)                  

New features

  - New vignette("type-hierarchy") and vignette("precision").
  - format() functions now support customized output.
      - New sigfig and digits arguments control the displayed precision.
      - New notation argument chooses decimal, scientific or hexadecimal
        output.
      - New options "bignum.sigfig" and "bignum.max_dec_width" determine
        the default formatting.
  - When a bignum vector is stored in a tibble column, the formatting is
    adjusted to aid reading data vertically.
      - The decimal point and exponent are aligned across rows and
        negative numbers are colored red.
      - The options "pillar.sigfig" and "pillar.max_dec_width" determine
        tibble formatting.
      - See vignette("digits", package = "pillar") for details.
  - digamma() and trigamma() operations are now supported.
  - log() now supports the base argument.

Bug fixes

  - Casting a non-integer double() to biginteger() now returns the
    truncated integer, consistent with base vectors. Previously NA was
    returned. A lossy cast warning is still raised.
  - Casting a large double() to biginteger() now works correctly.
    Previously NA was returned, depending on the value of
    options("scipen").
  - Casting Inf to biginteger() now raises a lossy cast warning.
  - Casting a large biginteger() to bigfloat() now raises a lossy cast
    warning when the bigfloat() precision is exceeded.
  - is.finite() and is.infinite() now correctly handle large bigfloat()
    values. Previously large values were considered infinite.
  - Comparisons between biginteger() and double() vectors are now
    possible (e.g. biginteger(2) > 1.5). Previously a lossy cast error
    was raised.

                 Changes in version 0.1.0 (2021-05-14)                  

First CRAN release.

  - Numeric vector classes:
    
      - biginteger() stores any integer (i.e. arbitrary precision).
      - bigfloat() stores 50 decimal digits of precision.

  - Constants for common situations: NA_biginteger_, NA_bigfloat_,
    bigpi.

  - Support for many basic operations:
    
      - Check for special values (help("bignum-special")):
          - is.na(), is.finite(), is.infinite(), is.nan()
      - Comparison (help("bignum-compare")):
          - <, >, <=, >=, ==, !=
      - Arithmetic (help("bignum-arith")):
          - +, -, *, /, ^, %%, %/%
      - Mathematical (help("bignum-math")):
          - sum(), prod(), max(), min(), range(), mean()
          - cumsum(), cumprod(), cummax(), cummin()
          - floor(), ceiling(), trunc()
          - abs(), sign(), sqrt()
          - log(), log10(), log2(), log1p(), exp(), expm1()
          - cos(), sin(), tan(), acos(), asin(), atan(), cospi(),
            sinpi(), tanpi()
          - cosh(), sinh(), tanh(), acosh(), asinh(), atanh()
          - gamma(), lgamma(), factorial(), lfactorial()
