phsmethods 0.2.0 (2020-04-17)

New functions added: age_group()(#23, @chrisdeans); chi_check()(#30, @graemegowans); chi_pad()(#30, @graemegowans); and match_area()(#13, @jvillacampa).
The first argument of postcode() is now x, as opposed to string. This is unlikely to break much, if any, existing code. postcode() is also now slightly faster.
phsmethods no longer imports stringi.
phsmethods now depends on a version of R >= 2.10.
Jack Hannah is no longer a maintainer.

phsmethods 0.1.1 (2020-02-10)

file_size(), fin_year(), qtr(), qtr_end(), qtr_next() and qtr_prev() now use inherits(x, "y") instead of class(x) == "y" to check class. The reasoning is explained in this blogpost by Martin Maechler.
The performance of fin_year() has been improved. The function now extracts the unique date(s) from the input, calculates the associated financial year(s), and joins to the original input. This is in contrast with the original method, which directly calculated the financial year of all input dates individually.

Initial package release.
file_size(), fin_year(), postcode(), qtr(), qtr_end(), qtr_next() and qtr_prev() functions added.
