Julia v1.5 Release Notes
========================
New language features
---------------------
Language changes
----------------
* Converting arbitrary tuples to `NTuple`, e.g. `convert(NTuple, (1, ""))` now gives an error,
where it used to be incorrectly allowed. This is because `NTuple` refers only to homogeneous
tuples (this meaning has not changed) ([#34272]).
Multi-threading changes
-----------------------
Build system changes
--------------------
New library functions
---------------------
New library features
--------------------
* Function composition now works also on one argument `∘(f) = f` (#34251)
Standard library changes
------------------------
* The `@timed` macro now returns a `NamedTuple` ([#34149])
#### LinearAlgebra
* The BLAS submodule now supports the level-2 BLAS subroutine `hpmv!` ([#34211]).
* `normalize` now supports multidimensional arrays ([#34239])
* `lq` factorizations can now be used to compute the minimum-norm solution to under-determined systems ([#34350]).
#### Markdown
#### Random
#### REPL
#### SparseArrays
* `lu!` accepts `UmfpackLU` as an argument to make use of its symbolic factorization.
#### Dates
