Release v0.4.0

Major Features

• We no longer guarantee compatibility of ITU-Rpy with python 2.7 - 3.5.

Minor Features And Improvements

• Fix code so it is compatible with latest version of scipy (>1.10.0).

ITU-Rpy v0.3.4

Release v0.3.4

Minor Features And Improvements

• Ensure attenuation values (gas, cloud, rain, scintillation) are always positive. Added a check to ensure that all values returned by the functions below are always positive (i.e., we cannot have a negative attenuation which will actually correspond to a gain):
• When computing the rain attenuation in ITU618, the computation of β had a bug that resulted in β=0 for lat <= 36 deg (missing equal sign).
• Added EPSILON, a small constant to prevent warning and errors when a) the model says that h_r < h_s, and b) the value of R001 = 0.

Reference to PRs

• Fix bug when computing β in ITU618 by @inigodelportillo in #61
• Ensure attenuation values (gas, cloud, rain, scintillation) are always positive by @inigodelportillo in #63
