dcifer 1.5.0 (2025-11-11)

• New: a function mixMat() that combines two triangular matrices into one square matrix (useful for plotting).
• Changes to plotRel() function:

• Highlighted (statistically significant) entries are now specified by a logical square matrix
• These entries can be either outlined in a different color or "amplified" (made larger than other entries), which is useful for large datasets

dcifer 1.4.0

• Added: one-sided (one-tailed) tests for functions ibdPair(), ibdDat(), and ibdEstM(). The argument side indicates if a one- or two-sided test is performed and the side for the one-sided test.
• matchAfreq() function now provides both updated dsmp and afreq (outputting a list of two corresponding elements). The new version allows for "extra" alleles in both dsmp and afreq.
• Minor updates/fixes:
  • NA returned when there are no loci with data in both samples
  • names for COI match sample ID's

dcifer 1.3.0

• Function calcAfreq() adjusted to exclude missing data (per ID at a locus)

dcifer 1.2.1 (2023-12-12)

• Single locus data now allowed.

dcifer 1.2.0 (2022-10-31)

• New: functions formatDat() and formatAfreq() that reformat data frames containing sample data and population allele frequencies in long formats.

dcifer 1.1.1 (2022-08-10)

• Fix: logReval() now covers all relevant edge cases.

dcifer 1.1.0 (2022-08-06)

• Special case added: loci with no shared alleles (more efficient);
• logReval() now has an argument equalr and performs additional checks. Can provide equalr = TRUE and M > 1; the result is reflected in the sum1r element of the output.

dcifer 1.0.1 (2022-07-15)

First public release.
