  • Note mayweather_mcgregor_tweets, mlb_elo, nba_carmelo, nfl_elo, and senators datasets for now only include the first 10 rows of the data because of R package file size restrictions (< 5MB tarballs); code to download/process the entire dataset are included in help files. We hope to include full versions of these datasets in v0.5.0 of package using the drat package.
  • Converted all ordinal categorical variables to factor(..., ordered = TRUE). Ex: bechdel$clean_test
  • Vignette notes:
    • Added a vignette that has a link to all user-contributed vignettes, which are only available on development version of package and on GitHub due to CRAN package size restrictions. Run vignette("user_contributed_vignettes", package = "fivethirtyeight")
    • For all datasets that have a user contributed vignette, add a link to it in the corresponding help/roxygen code file.
  • Added CITATION
