All table_X_X_X() and figure_X_X_X()
functions have been renamed to descriptive equivalents following the
eq5d_<domain>_<what>() convention. The old
numeric names no longer exist; update any existing code using the table

update_value_sets() — check for and
install new EQ-5D value sets from the online repository without
requiring a package update. Value sets are hosted at https://github.com/MathsInHealth/eq5dsuite-value-sets.
Automatic value set migration — when value set
codes change (e.g. when a country publishes a second value set and the
original code is disambiguated with a year suffix),
update_value_sets() automatically applies the necessary
renames.
Package documentation — ?eq5dsuite
now opens a package-level help page listing all exported functions
organised by category.
Vignettes — five vignettes are now available via
browseVignettes("eq5dsuite"):
make_dummies() — column matching is now
case-insensitive and no longer renames columns in place.NEWS.md file to track changes to the
