Choose a tag to compare

- Change the behaviour of functions on error by calling either `stop()`
  or `warning()` rather than `cat()` or returning `NULL`
- R function `likelihood()` is internal
- Add tests for the covariance matrix
- Adjust tests to be more robust when comparing with the original
  `poLCA`
- Add `renv.lock` for recording dependencies used during development
  and testing
- Move C++ header files to `src/`
- Minor refactor in code such as in `ErrorSolver` and using
  `std::jthread`
- Housekeeping on documentation, `DESCRIPTION`, `CITATION`, `README.md`
  `.Rbuildignore`, `LICENSE` and Apptainer files

- Fix bug where `probs.start.ok` is incorrectly `FALSE` if the
  user does not provide starting probabilities
- Fix `poLCA.posterior()` which now uses the C++ implementation.
  Previously, it did not link correctly to the C implementation
- Implement C++ versions of likelihood and posterior evaluation,
  deprecate some internal R and C functions following
- Change the nesting order of `for` loops in the E step
- Add more tests for various R functions
- Add a `R CMD check` in the dev Apptainer
- Favour `remotes` over `devtools` in documentation
- Generate all documentation using `roxygen2`
- Generate `NAMESPACE` with `usethis` and `roxygen2`

v1.2.4: Add tests and bug fix in `blrt()`

22 Sep 11:01

Choose a tag to compare

- Add C++ tests using Catch2
- Add R tests using `testthat`
- Fix bug in `blrt()` when passing a model fitted onto dat with
  missing data
- Add Apptainer definition file with testing and version pinning
- Some minor refactors to both C++ and R code

v1.2.3: Bug fix in goodness of fit and other refactors

Choose a tag to compare

- Bug fix in `GoodnessOfFit`, correctly use `n_obs_` rather than
  `n_data` when calculating the chi-squared statistics

- Move `.h` files to `include/`
- Add `arma.h` and use `-DUSE_RCPP`
- Add various utility functions in `util.h`
- Overload constructors, making parameters for the regression problem
  optional
- Use `[[maybe_unused]]`
- Add assertions
- Implement `GoodnessOfFit`
- Use `atomic` in `EmAlgorithmArray` and `Blrt`
- Use templates in `standard_error_rcpp.cc`
- Other minor C++ refactors

v1.2.2: Bug fix in `Blrt` and C++ refactor

Choose a tag to compare

 - Bug fix for `Blrt::Bootstrap` by sampling correctly from the prior,
   previously, it sampled from a uniform prior which is incorrect. This
   affect results from models with largely varying priors
 - Modernise C++ code, such as using containers, iterators, `const`,
   `std::size_t`, templates, ...etc. This will improve maintainability
   and, in certain cases, performance
 - Remove underflow detection as this was implemented incorrectly and
   never used

v1.2.1: Implement NA handling

27 Jan 11:17

Choose a tag to compare

 - Fix bug so it can handle NA values
 - Add parameters in some C++ functions and classes to cater for NA
   handling
 - Minor C++ refactoring

v1.2.0: Add C++ implementation of standard error calculations

27 Aug 15:01

Choose a tag to compare

 - Add C++ implementation of standard error calculations. This implementation
   uses SVD rather than a full pseudo-inverse.
 - Add argument `se.smooth` for experimental Laplace smoothing on the response
   probabilities when doing standard error calculations. This provides better
   numerical stability and avoids very small standard errors.
 - The original poLCA code is used for `nclass=1`
 - Bump to C++20
 - No OpenMP to stop overthreading in the regression model
 - Minor update to the documentation
 - Minor improvements in the C++ code by using more of the arma and C++
   features such as using in-place operations and containers instead of raw
   arrays
