funrar 1.2.0

Split rarity_dimensions() in two more explicit functions: uniqueness_dimensions() and distinctiveness_dimensions() split corresponding tests;
Add internal function to compute multiple functional distance matrix using a single trait table (combination_trait_dist());
distinctiveness() now fully conserve the dimnames of the provided site-species matrix.

funrar 1.1.1

Add tests for rarity_dimensions();
rarity_dimensions() now comprises both Uniqueness and Distinctiveness;
Remove packages StatMatch, microbenchmark & reshape2 from suggested packages.

Made make_absolute() defunct because it was based on false assumptions and would not give back matrices of relative abundances;
Improved examples of make_relative(), uniqueness(), distinctiveness() to compute across single communities or regional pools;
Add rarity_dimensions() function to measure the different facets of rarity according to the trait;
Add center and scale arguments in compute_dist_matrix() to scale traits before computing distance, these arguments are sensitive to the specific distance metric used;
Use markdown with roxygen2 to generates documentation.

Corrected bug so that dense matrices can be transformed to stack data frame using matrix_to_stack() (#19),
Updated citation for Violle et al. 2017,
Use package goodpractice to enforce better code style,
Add is_relative() function to test if matrix contains relative abundances, scarcity() and distinctiveness() now warns if it is not the case (#21),
Conditionnally use microbenchmark following CRAN advices.

Added functions to convert absolute abundance matrix to relative abundance matrix, make_relative() and reverse function make_absolute(),
Added a NEWS.md file to track changes to the package.
