New Functions:

• death_validate_data()

Updated Functions:

• death_xxx_count(), death_injury_matrix_count(), death_multicause_count(), & death_other_count() ... all now use death_validate_data() and use rads.data::synthetic_deaths for examples

v1.5.3

New Functions:

• data_modeler() generate uncorrelated data (and the code to recreate it) that is shaped like your real data but is likely ok to share publicly.
• chars_validate_data()

Updated Functions:

• calc.dtsurvey() improved 'where' handling
• calc() fixed return of timevar when using imputationLists
• multiple updates to chars functions, use rads.data::synthetic_chars for examples
  • removed all use of deprecated functions
  • created and make use of chars_validate_data() in the counting functions
  • refactored chars_injury_matrix_count() to use just two columns of raw data rather than searching across many mechanism_* and intent_* columns
  • updated wikis

Updated Vignettes:

• utilities#data_modeler: https://github.com/PHSKC-APDE/rads/wiki/utilities#data_modeler

v1.5.2

New Functions:

• none

Updated Functions:

• calc() many improvements for processing factors in imputationLists
• tsql_convert_types() now preserves case (lower/upper)

Updated Vignettes:

• added note re: deprecation for population, get_data, and brfss functions vignettes

Deprecations:

• functions that were migrated to the apde.data package: as_imputed_brfss(), as_table_brfss(), get_data_birth(), get_data_brfss(), get_data_chars(), get_data_death(), get_data_hys(), get_data_pums(), get_population(), list_apde_data(), list_dataset_columns(), pool_brfss_weights(), validate_hhsaw_key()

Other Changes:

• Previously deprecated functions that were migrated to apde.chi.tools are now made defunct

Full Changelog: v1.5.0...v1.5.2

1.5.0

New Functions:

• tsql_type_convert() to losslessly bring an R data.frame/data.table into alignment with field types for its corresponding TSQL table. Calls upon and complements tsql_validate_field_types().

Updated Functions:

• lossless_convert() now allows class = 'raw'
• convert_to_date() allows for more date formats, specifically
  • %m-%d-%y, e.g. '7-14-25'
  • %m/%d/%y, e.g. '7/14/25'
  • %d%b%Y, e.g. '14Jul2025'

1.4.1

Updated Functions:

• adjust_direct() and age_standardize()

  • New Feature: Added event_type parameter to distinguish between unique and repeatable events
  • Improved Validation: Improved input validation with clearer error messages for age columns, populations, and parameters
  • Better Edge Case Handling:
    • Cap rates at 100% for unique events when count > population
    • Improved upper confidence interval calculations for zero counts
  • Bug Fixes:
    • Fixed age validation when using agecat instead of age column
    • Fixed summary population returns when pop < count

New Functions:

• none

Updated Vignettes:

• age_standardize vignette updated to include a note about incomplete age series

Deprecations:

• none

• expanded unit test for age_adjust() and age_standardize()

Full Changelog: v1.4.0...v1.4.1

v1.4.0

Updated Functions:

• none

New Functions:

• death_multicause_count(): count causes of death for given combination of underlying cause of death and contributing causes of death

Updated Vignettes:

• death functions vignette updated for new functions + minor formatting / word smithing changes

Deprecations:

• none

Other Changes:

• Updated documentation for pre-existing death functions. Most notably added @seealso so death functions refer to each other.
