Package updates (April 2026)
by Riccardo (Jack) Lucchetti
Dear all,
this message is to inform the community about the activity in our
function package repository: during the month of April 2026, 2 packages
were updated to a new version:
"color_xy", by myself (color xy plot for time series )
"Winters", by Ignacio Diaz-Emparanza and Allin Cottrell (Winters
forecasting method)
The most important update is, by far, the one to the "Winters" package:
it was prompted by a message that ramakrishnasalagrama(a)gmail.com posted
to the list two months ago on his difficulties to replicate some results
from Rob Hyndman. So Allin wrote some cool improvements to old code by
Ignacio, and here we are, with a brand new version. (And yes, Hyndman's
example can be replicated now.)
As usual, update and enjoy!
