scuba 1.2-2 'scuba' is a contributed package that performs theoretical calculations about scuba diving --- dive profiles, decompression models, gas toxicity and so on. New features in version 1.2-2: . Package vignette provides detailed explanations. . Improved handling of data from dive computers. . Gas switches (switching from one tank of breathing gas to another during the dive) are now easy to specify. . Relative tissue saturations can be computed easily . Eleven new datasets: real dive profiles . Dives with multiple tanks of breathing gas are now plotted using a different colour for each gas. New functions: whichtank whichtank<- Choice of breathing gas tank at each waypoint during the dive Improvements: dive For easier handling of data uploaded from dive computers, dive() now accepts elapsed time values in the formats "hh:mm:ss", and "mm:ss" where mm can exceed 60. plot.dive Dives with multiple tanks of breathing gas are now plotted using a different colour for each gas. The choice of colours is controlled by the argument 'col.gases'. haldane This function has a new argument 'relative'. If relative=TRUE, tissue saturations are computed as fractions of the surfacing M-value. ndl Improved numerical stability, in mixed-gas case. The return value of ndl now has an attribute which identifies the controlling tissue. showstates Improved plot labels.
