V 0.4.3
=======
- Fix  :
  - In *sameShape*:  there was a future bug due to change in class "matrix". Fixed it by implementing 2 functions to check class
  
V 0.4.2
=======
- Fix test :
  - Case in *build_encoding*: min_frequency allows to drop rare values" was not built correctly.
  
V 0.4.1
=======
- New features:
  - New functions:
    - Functions *target_encode* and *build_target_encoding* have been implemented to provide target encoding which is the process of replacing a categorical value with the aggregation of the target variable.
    - Function *remove_sd_outlier* helps to remove rows that have numerical values to extrem.
    - Function *remove_percentile_outlier* helps to remove rows that have numerical values to extrem (based on percentile analysis).
    - Function *remove_rare_categorical* helps to remove rows that have categorial values to rare.
  - New features in existing functions : 
    - Function *prepareSet* integrate *target_encode* function. It is called by providing *target_col* and *target_encoding_functions*.

V 0.4.0
=======
- New features:
  - New features in existing functions : 
    - To avoid issues based on column names, we will check and rename columns that have same names. 
    - In *aggregateByKey* generated column names are changed to be more explicit. 
    - In *aggregateByKey* generated from character column with more than \code{thresh} values is now count of unique instead of count.
    - Added missing *auto* default values on cols

- Bug fixes:
  - *whichAreBijection* and *whichAreInDouble* are using *bi_col_test* which was not working with 2 column data set. It is fixed.
  - *prepareSet* optinal argumennt *factor_date_type* was not working. It is fixed.

- Other changes: 
  - Changed *whichAreIncluded* example since it was to slow for CRAN. Also it might be a little bit more explicit now.
  - Changed *aggregateByKey* example since it was to slow for CRAN.

- Integration:
  - Rewrite all tests to make them more readable
  - Code coverage is improved, depencies on *messy_adult* set is lowered

WARNING:
- In *aggregateByKey* generated column names are changed.
- In *aggregateByKey* generated column for character is different.

V 0.3.9
=======
- Integration:
  	- Matching new devtools requierments
  	- Starting to rewrite unittest to make it more readable

V 0.3.8
=======
- New features:
  	- New features in existing functions:
		- Identification of bijection through internal function *fastIsBijection* is way faster (up to 40 times faster in case of bijection). So *whichArebijection* and *fastFiltervariables* are also improved.
		- Remove remaining *gc* to save time. 
		- In *one_hot_encoder* added parameter *type* to make choise between logical or numerical results.
	  
  	  
V 0.3.7
=======
- New features:
	- New functions:
		- Function *as.POSIXct_fast* is now available. It helps to transform to POSIXct way faster (if the same date value is present multiple times in the column).
	- New features in existing functions:
		- In dates identifications, we make it faster by computing search of format only on unique values.
		- In date transformation, we made it faster by using *as.POSIXct_fast* when it is necessary.
		- Functions *findAndTransFormDates*, *findAndTransformNumerics* and *unFactor* now accept argument *cols* to limitate search.

- Bug fixes:
	- Control that over-allocate option is activated on every data.table to avoid issues with set. Package should be more robust.
	- In bijection search (internal function *fastIsBijection*) there was a bug on some rare cases. Fixed but slower.

-Code quality:
	- Improving code quality using lintr
	- Suppressing some useless code
	- Meeting new covr standard
	- Improve log of setColAsXXX

V 0.3.6
=======

- Integration:
	- Making dataPreparation compatible with testthat 2.0.0
	
V 0.3.5
=======
- New features:
	- New features in existing functions:
		- *findAndTransFormDates* now as an *ambiguities* parameter, IGNORE to work as before, WARN to check for ambiguities and print them, SOLVE to try to solve ambiguities on more lines.
		- *one_hot_encoder* now uses a *build_encoding* functions to be able to build same encoding on train and on test.
		- *aggregateByKey* is now way faster on numerics. But it changed the way it gets input functions.
		- *fastScale* now as a *way* parameter which allow you to either scale or unscale. Unscaling numeric values can be very usefull for most post-model analysis.
		- *setColAsDate* now accept multiple formats in a single call.
	- New functions:
		- *build_encoding* build a list of encoding to be used by *one_hot_encoder*, it also has a parameter *min_frequency* to control that rare values doesn't result in new columns.
		- Previously private function *identifyDates* is now exported. To be able to perform same transformation on train and on test.
		- Adding *dataPrepNews* function to open NEWS file (inspired from rfNews() of randomForest package)
		
- Bug fixes:
	- *findAndTransFormDates*: bug fixed: user formats weren't used.
	- *identifyDates*: some formats where tested but would never work. They have been removed.
	
- Refactoring: 
	- Unit test partly reviewed to be more readable and more efficient. Unit test time as been divided by 3.
	- Improving input control for more robust functions
	
WARNING:
- *one_hot_encoder* now requires you to run *build_encoding* first.
- *aggregateByKey* now require functions to be passed by character name
		
This version is making (as much as possible) transformation reproducible on train and test set. This is to prepare future pipeline feature.

V 0.3.4
========

V 0.3.3
========
- New features:
	- New features in existing functions:
		- *findAndTransFormDates* now recognize date character even if there are multiple separator in date (ex: "2016, Jan-26").
		- *findAndTransFormDates* now recognize date character even if there are leading and tailing white spaces.
		
WARNING:
- *date3* column in *messy_adult* data set has changed in order to illustrate the recognition of date character even if there are leading and/or trailing white spaces.
- *date4* column in *messy_adult* data set has changed in order to illustrate the recognition of date character even if there are multiple separator.

- Minor changes in log (in particular regarding progress bars and typos)
	- Due to dependencies issues with *tcltk*, we stop using it and start using *progress*
- Refactoring: 
	- Private function *real_cols* take more importance to control that columns have the correct types and handling "auto" value.
	- Making code faster: some functions are up to **30% faster**
	- Review unit testing to be faster
	- Unit test evolution to be more readable

WARNING:

WARNING:
- If you were using *diffDates*, it is now called *generateDateDiffs*
- *date2* column in *messy_adult* data set have changed in order to illustrate new timestamp features
- *setColAsFactorOrLogical* doesn't exist anymore: it as been splitted between *setColAsFactor* and *generateFromCat*
- Considering all those changes: *shapeSet* and *prepareSet* don't give the same result anymore.
