This addresses #224 .
The PR essentially drops the last batch if it has a size different from
batchsize. This is enforced only for estimating the gradients. So the behavior ofestimate_objectiveis unchanged. Dropping the last batch could introduce a slight bias in the algorithms, but it should be minimal as long as the number of batches is sufficiently large (which is the only case where subsampling makes sense anyway.)
