extract_theta(), extract_omega(), and extract_sigma() provide an interface for extracting the initial estimates of $THETA, $OMEGA, and $SIGMA records into numeric objects. (#30, #34)New functions set_theta(), set_omega(), and set_sigma() provide an interface for setting the initial estimates of $THETA, $OMEGA, and $SIGMA records. (#18)
The VALUES(diag,odiag) option in $OMEGA and $SIGMA records used to be parsed into an option with the value “(diag,odiag)”. It is now parsed into a nested option that includes diag and odiag options, enabling diag and odiag to be more easily accessed and set. (#18)
parse_ctl() now checks whether any of the input lines have newline characters (which is invalid) and aborts. (#21)
$THTA was not recognized as an alias for $THETA. (#17)
For the $THETA form “(low,,up)”, the parser returned an option with up as the init value. (#18)
Users may insert a string for a record in the records list of nmrec_ctl_records objects, but select_records() crashed on string values. It now skips strings. (#22)
New convenience function set_record_option() provides an interface for adding and modifying standard options. (#5)
Parsing within $PROBLEM records is now supported. (#10)
nmrec was not compatible with R versions before 4.1 due to the use of gregexec(). (#11)Initial release (#1)
