Log Message:
Update to 1.0.5
Upstream changes:
Changes in version 1.0-5 (2016-02-02)
o improvements in quantile estimation
Changes in version 1.0-4 (2016-01-19)
o a new algorithm for quantile estimation, again. Quantiles are
now computed by a stochastic root finding algorithm. Note
that f.quantile in the output of qmv{t,norm} is now (again)
the squared difference between the cdf evaluated at the
quantile and the level. The \code{interval} argument to the
quantile functions is used as a starting value for the
root finder when available.
o clean-ups in C and R code and documentation
Changes in version 1.0-3 (2015-07-21)
o new algorithm for quantile estimation. Quantiles are
now computed by minimising the squared distance between the
distribution function and the probability whereas previous versions
used uniroot(). The procedure is now performed multiple times with
difference random seeds in order to stabilise the results. The
\code{interval} argument to the quantile functions is IGNORED now.
