# anthro (development version)

## Method

* The `Weight-for-length/height (zwfl)` z-score indicator is now also computed
for observations where `weight` or `lenhei` is outside the plausible ranges.
The plausible ranges were 0.9-58 for `weight` and 38-150 for `lenhei`.

## Z-scores

* The resulting data frame of `anthro_zscores` has a new column `c9mo_flag`
