v2.35.0 (3 June 2024)

• Exposes new arguments for laplace:
  calculate_lp is a boolean subarg of laplace which controls whether or not log_prob is called for each approximate draw. Default is true (existing behavior).
  The diagnostic_file argument of output now exposes information from the mode, namely the gradient and Hessian.
  (#1246)
• CmdStan will now halt if a filesystem error prevents writing to one of the output files. (#1249)
• The generate_quantities method now supports the num_chains arguments to perform downstream analysis in parallel. (#1256)
• log_prob now prevents the same CSV from being read and written to at the same time. (#1259)
• Boolean arguments to cmdstan accept true and false in addition to 1 and 0. (#1260)
• mingw32-make is no longer necessary on Windows, the standard make program is sufficient. (#1262)
• Improved the logic around the USER_HEADER variable to give an informative error when it is misspecified. (#1264)
• make clean deletes more files, hopefully making it so make clean-all needs to be run far less often. (#1267)
• Fixed an issue preventing the precompiled header from being used with GCC. (#1268)
• Allow num_warmup=0 to be paired with adapt engaged=0 when the algorithm is the fixed_param sampler. (#1277)
