New test build 141 for EpiData Analysis
Another build of EpiData Analysis is now ready from http://www.epidata.dk/testing.php
Thanks to several users for reporting smaller and larger bugs. All reported major bugs been removed in build 141.
Some problems will not be removed until a complete rewrite, e.g. related to regression and correlation. Users can see these on the mantis system as http://www.epidata.dk/php/mantis/login_page.php Acknowledged issues here means they will be handled later. The only problems currently not investigated or decided upon are : - small sample size percentiles - some strange test results for some situations of gamma and Chi2. - global variables (define .... global) are not completely independent of settings in windows
The main news since current public release is: - removal of many small bugs and inconsistencies
New or rewritten commands: - CIPLOT: new command to show proportions and Confidence Interval - HELPVIEW: new command show html file in help window - Read data from the clipboard, e.g. copied from spreadsheets. - Browse and Update extended (e.g. show labels and copy to clipboard) - List display labels (list will be changed to a table format in v2.1)
Extended commands: - Recode: value labels automatic - BAR and Histogram: Y axis can be scaled as percent: Option /PCT - Weight variables can be non-integer - Merge accepts comparing upper string with string key
Design: - Menu and toolbar design simplified and unified (for translation) - Translation: All dialogs translated (ready for translators) - More options for display font size
Waiting for final decision before release as v2.1: - KMPLOT: Kaplan-Meier plots (expected, but not fully decided)
I am aware that it can be annoying to keep getting information on new builds, since we are releasing for test about once a week. But there is no other way of informing and asking for assistance in the "bug removal" process. - apart from the internal test routines, which now test more than 1890 aspects routinely.
As usual the test version is available from http://www.epidata.dk/testing.php
regards Jens Lauritsen EpiData Association
Dear Jens:
This is greatly appreciated, not "annoying": it allows a glimpse at how work proceeds and allows experimenting.
Thanks for everything,
Hans
