 # `inspectdf` 0.0.7.9000
 
+- Added `pcnt_nna` column to `inspect_cor()` output containin the percentage of pairwise complete observations used calculated correlations.  Thanks to Theo Broekman for the suggestion.
 - Fixed bug causing order of grouping variable in grouped `inspect_` statements to be incorrect.  Thanks to the report from Theo Broekman.
 - Removed erroneous print statement form `inspect_num()`.
