mpmsim 1.1.0

• modified the simulation of fecundity in random_mpm(). Now the values are provided as mean fecundity and can be provided as a range of values, whereby a value is drawn from a random uniform distribution. This is the best way to create a set of models with different fecundity properties.
• added function to simulate the action of drivers such as weather on vital rates: drive_vital_rate().
• added model_mortality() as an alias for model_survival().
• function generate_mpm_set() now returns a CompadreDB object by default.
• added full suite of unit tests using testthat. Test coverage 97.17%.

mpmsim 1.0.0

First release, with the following functionality.

• Functions for simulating Lefkovitch matrix models: generate_mpm_set() andrandom_mpm().
• A function for constructing Leslie matrix models: make_leslie_mpm(), which can make use of outputs from functions for describing demographic trajectories (model_fertility() and model_survival()).
• Functions for calculating and propagating error: add_mpm_error(), calculate_errors() and compute_ci().
• A utility function: plot_matrix()
