• Marium Tapal @mariumtapal created fivethirtyeightdata package using drat package to store large files. This is due to CRAN package size restrictions:
  • When installing fivethirtyeight user is now prompted to install fivethirtyeightdata
  • Moved all user-contributed vignettes to fivethirtyeightdata to keep package size down
  • Moved the following large datasets to fivethirtyeightdata
