random number generation
Can a single random number be generated in R? I have an exercise that wants
to simulate coin tosses, and I cannot seem to find a good example of the use
of random number generation in R. Any help?

Offtopic, HT vs. HH in coin flips
Dear R-help,
Could someone please try to explain this paradox to me? What is more likely to show up first in a string of coin tosses, "Heads then Tails", or "Heads then Heads"?
##generate 2500 strings of random coin flips
ht <- replicate(2500,
paste(sample(c("H", "T"), 100, replace = TRUE),

Im trying to simulate the rolling of a pair of dice
this is my function:
#function to simulate tosses of a pair of dice
#from the simulation, the program returns the empirical probability of
#observing a double
count <- 0
for(j in 1:sim){#begin loop
die1 <- sample(1:6,1)
print(die1)
die2 <- sample(1:6,1)
print(die2)
count <- ifelse(die1 == die2, count + 1, count)
}#end loop

Coin Toss Simulation
I am trying a simple toin coss simulation, of say 200 coin tosses. The idea
is to have a data frame like so:
Experiment# Number_Of_Heads
1 104
2 96
3 101
So I do:
d <-data.frame(exp_num=c(1,2,3)); /* Just 3 experiments to begin with */
d$head_ct <-sum(sample(0:1,200,repl=TRUE));
d;
exp_num head_ct

Head or Tails game
Hi,
Reading about a "Heads and Tails" game in
http://www.dartmouth.edu/~chance/teaching_aids/books_articles/probability_book/amsbook.mac.pdf
Introduction to Probability (Example 1.4, pp. 5-8).
You toss a coin 40 times. If heads, Peter wins $1, tails, he loses $1. I
think I can do that ok with:
winnings <- sum(sample(c(-1,1), 40, replace=TRUE))
But I have to do it 10,000 times

No subject
Dear friends. In Carlin and Louis "Bayes and emperical Bayes methods.."
1996 the classical example of 12 independent tosses of a fair coin
producing 9 heads and 3 tails is given. If the situation is seen as a fixed
sample of 12, a binomial lieklihood is used, and Carlin et al reports a
probability of 0.075.
Using sum(dbinom(9:12,12,.5)) I obtain 0.073

Problems with crashing IBM X3630 M3/ZFS
Hello. I've got a quartet of IBM x3630 M3 with one that is frequently

My problem machine has 8 16 core clients, each doing IO intensive tasks
connected to it via a Procurve and the onboard igb0 interface. Mostly
network reads, typically 10MB read per MB written.

win2000 and samba
Hi,
We have a samba server 2.2.4 in a RH 6.2 Linux system. I should say that
the samba server is working well except for a win2000 workstation. For
this win2000, the user can mount network drive to the samba server, e.g.
H: to \\sambaserver\username, it asks the password, if entered correctly.
it is connected. No problem at all. However, if the user reboots the
win2000, the poblem comes.

MTU was: Re: my icecast problem
It is going to depend on a number of factors. Linux sets (along with a
few other OS's I'm sure) its MTU to 1500. The problem is, if you set it
longer then it will most likely be frag'd by your router. If that router
does not, then another will.
I think MTU for ppp interfaces are smaller.
Likewise, if your backbone is FDDI, it has a large frame (somewhere in the
8000 range I

makedepend in Mesa
While keeping up-to-date the nouveau mesa driver (either classic or
gallium), or doing regression testing, the big majority of my rebuilds
resulted in segfaults.
I am not talking about autogen or configure detection. I believe this
also works automatically in other projects and doesn't with mesa, but
forgetting to do this usually causes a build failure. Then

Rails on a Mac - I''ve seen the light
Well I finally broke down and got me one of those Intel iMacs and a copy
of Textmate. It took me a bit to get use to Textmate but once I learned
some of the shortcuts I was cruising. Mac OS X took very little time to
get used to as I already had a decent *nix background. Up until this
point I had been primarily on Windows.

problem formatting data frames
Dear R-guRus:
I have a problem with the format of my data in R.
Let's say I have a HUGE text table which consists of columns of
numerical data, separated by tabs, but in some places rows of text
(error messages, etc) are inserted in between rows of numerical data.
Because the data file is so huge and because I have thousands of these
files, it's unpractical to try and go thru these
