Hola buenas noches, tengo un problema bastante gordo. ¿A alguno le ha dejado de funcionar las funciones pamer.fnc y mcp.fnc con la nueva versión de R? La semana pasada formatee el ordenador y ahora scripts antiguos no funcionan. La cuestión es que me precupa que no funcione el ejemplo de tutorial del autor. Os dejo un script que debería de funcionar y no lo hace

Hallo sir/madam, I have a Chinese brand Ultrasound unit Ivis 60 model which had issues with booting after power fluctuations here in Congo -Africa. It is using a syslinux 3.31 which is continually giving problem when trying to enter BIOS so that I can install new files available on the usb disk.

Dear R-devel, Has anyone played with this? http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/DevelopWithAMD/0,,30_2252_2282,00.html <http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/DevelopWithAMD/0,,30_2252_2282,00.html> .

Dear R-devel, I recall that there used to be a mechanism to get around the requirement that all objects in a package have associated documentation; i.e., a way to specify a list of objects (mostly functions) that are not considered as part of the package API. Is this still available? I cannot find any mention in R-exts. I realize that the way to go is to have a name space, and eventually

[I believe few users manipulate formulae and model frames like this, so I'm posting here instead of R-help.] I just found out that model.frame() includes all terms, including those preceded by "-" in the formula, in its output (as mentioned on its help page). Is there a recommended way of excluding "negative" terms? My guess is that I can use info in the terms attribute

All: The select.list() command brings up a "modal dialog box with a (scrollable) list of items ..." etc. -- i.e., a GUI control. I also know about winDialog, file.choose and the winMenu commands. What other such GUIisms are built into ** base ** R (I know about the tcltk package)? Or, better yet, how can I search on or list them? Many thanks. Bert Gunter Biometrics Research RY 84-16

Hi. I did write those functions, and sent them (I thought) to one of the R maintainers to see whether they would be appropriate for inclusion (because I'd seen some requests on the mailing lists). However, I'm happy to post them -- I should have thought of it before. WARNING: I've tested these functions on some data arising in my work and also on the USArrests data that comes with

Not sure whether this is a feature or bug -- but it does not appear to be documented. R1.6.1 on Windows NT 4.00.1381 Objects assigned in the Rprofile.site file (e.g. foo<-'something') are put into package:base not .GlobalEnv on startup. Objects assigned in the .Rprofile file are put into .GlobalEnv. This doesn't seem consistent to me. The objects exist in base only for the

Folks: Winnt; R1.7.0 (freshly installed) running under Rgui.exe.,MDI=yes. The following is repeatable: On startup, in my Rprofile.site file, I use winMenuAdd() etc. to install some user menus. However, they do not appear when R GUI window opens. If I minimize and restore the window, the added menus now are present. The exact same procedure under 1.6.2 with exactly the same Rprofile.site and

Dear R-help, Has anyone notice the problem that, on Windows (NT and XP), when printing a graph using the "File -> Print..." menu in the graphics window to print the graph, that line width seemed to be ignored in the printed output? For example, if I make a plot with plot(1:10, type="l", lwd=5), it looks right on screen, but when printed out using the menu, it looks like

Dear R-help, I've been compiling R from source on our Linux boxes for quite a while. One thing that bugs me is that I always get an error when make check-all where it choked up running tests/internet.R. That wasn't a big deal, as I can run install.packages()/update.packages() fine, and that's all I use the 'net connection for. The problem is that it takes a _long_ time to fail

Dear R-devel, Kurt had alerted me to the problem that the randomForest package that I maintain has been failing checks in R-devel. However, I just can't see why or where it's failing. I'd very much appreciate any pointer. The failure occur when running the example code in varImpPlot.Rd: > varImpPlot(mtcars.rf) Error in par(opar) : invalid value specified for graphical parameter
