• Adjusted documentation as requested by CRAN.

whippr 0.1.2

CRAN release: 2022-09-09

• Fixed a bug in read_data.cosmed() that made the time column to return NA values when the test was longer than one hour.
• Added a custom option to read_data().

whippr 0.1.1

• Updated docs with roxygen 7.2.1.

whippr 0.1.0

CRAN release: 2022-03-09

• General cleanup has been performed to reduce dependencies.

whippr 0.0.0.9000

Breaking changes

• The following function calls were simplified:

  • vo2_kinetics() and detect_outliers() = time_column argument not needed anymore (this is automatically taken from read_data() now).
  • plot_outliers() = test_type argument not needed anymore (this is automatically taken from detect_outliers() now).
  • perform_kinetics() = time_column and vo2_column arguments not needed anymore (this is automatically taken from read_data() and detect_outliers()).

New functions/methods

• Added function read_data() to read data from metabolic cart (COSMED and CORTEX).

  • Now you can specify the name of the time column, in case your system is not in English. Default is set to “t”.
  • Added option to read data from NSpire system (thanks to @peter__leo).
  • Added option to read data from Parvo Medics system (thanks to @EatsleepfitJeff).
  • Added option to read data from Geratherm Respiratory system (thanks to @marcorsini61)

• Added function interpolate() to interpolate breath-by-breath data into second-by-second.

• Added function perform_average() to perform bin- and rolling-averages.

• Added run_manual_cleaner().

• Added testing of functions (internal modification only, not visible to the user).

• Added new print method.

• Added new functionality for analyzing data from incremental exercise.

• Added perform_max() and vo2_max().

• Added support for the CardioCoach metabolic cart.

Bug fixes

• Fixed issue with read_data() when using the COSMED metabolic cart: previously, character columns were being coerced into NA(thanks @Scott-S-Hannah #4).

• Added extra argument to read_data() to automatically fix the issue when the work rate column is coerced as a character column (thanks to @ThibauxV).

• Improved error messages in case read_data() cannot find the name of the time column provided.

• Removed the time_column argument from the interpolate() and perform_average() functions. This is only necessary in read_data() now.

• Make sure that data does not contain rows and cols with only NA in interpolate() (thanks @Scott-S-Hannah).

• Fixed issue renaming work rate column in read_data() (thanks @Scott-S-Hannah #6).

VO2 kinetics analyses

• Added a set of tools for VO2 kinetics analyses.

Incremental test analyses

• Added a set of tools for incremental test analyses: data standardization and normalization, detection of ‘bad breaths’, mean response time, maximal values (i.e., VO2max, HRmax, maximal RER, etc), and ventilatory thresholds.
