## Version 1.1.5
* Updated `COAST` to automatically add an intercept to the `covar` matrix if one is not detected. Likewise for `CalcSumstats`.

## Version 1.1.1
* Updated `COAST` and `COASTSS` to return estimated effect sizes and standard errors from the allelic series burden test.

## Version 1.1.0
* Added the ability to run `COAST` and `COASTSS`, as well as the component tests, with an arbitrary number of discrete annotation categories.
	- The updated code prefers integer annotation category labels starting at 1. However, the main functions will still support 0-indexed category labels.
* Updated the data generating process `DGP` to simulate data with an arbitrary number of annotation categories.
* Added vignettes on Data Generation and COAST-SS.
* Updated `CalcSumstats` to bind all variant-level information (annotations, MAFs, betas, standard errors, p-values) into a single dataframe. 

## Version 1.0.2
* Streamlined and simplified the summary statistic-based allelic series baseline and sum tests, removing the need for meta-analysis or estimating cross category correlations.

## Version 1.0.0
* Added ability to run COAST starting from summary statistics:
	- `ASBTSS` runs the allelic series burden test from summary statistics.
	- `ASKATSS` runs the allelic series SKAT test from summary statistics.
	- `COASTSS` runs the omnibus coding-variant allelic series test from summary statistics. 
* Added a `CalcSumstats` function to generate summary statistics from individual-level data. 

## Version 0.6.0
* Replaced the `CountAlleles` function with a similar (but faster) `Counts` function that returns counts the total number of alleles, variants, and carriers by variant class.
* Updated the formatting of the results output by the main `COAST` function.

## Version 0.5.0

* Added option (`min_mac`) to filter the variant set to only include those variants having at least a minimum minor allele count (10 is recommended).
* Added a function (`CountAlleles`) to count the number of alleles of each variant category present in the genotype matrix. Also allows for counting the number of carriers of each type of allele.
* By default, `COAST` now reports the number of alleles of each variant category that contributed to the test.
