Changes in version 0.1.1.9004 Significant new features - read_npy() gains a new lazy argument. When lazy = TRUE, raw bytes are read lazily using ALTREP and mmap against the .npy file on disk, resulting in much better speed & memory performance. This is following a feature request from @btraven00 in #11. - read_npz() gains a new arrays argument to allow reading only a subset of the arrays in the npz container. Minor improvements - Elements of structured datatypes are now named if names were provided during the dataset creation. - read_npz() now adds names to the list it returns. The names are the names of the bundled .npy files without the file extension. Changes in version 0.1.1 (2026-05-19) - The package title and description have been revised based on CRAN feedback. - The return value for convert_bytes_to_array() is now documented. Changes in version 0.1.0 - Initial beta release.
