R help - Nov 1999 - Thanks

Thanks for warm reply from Osman and Prof D. Bates.  I have contacted the
R-help team twice and everyone gave me a nice reply (except once) and I was
extremely happy.  I talked to my colleagues about it.  These days, the
customer support for the paid software doesn't do any good most of the
times. But the R-help team has been very helpful to me in giving the answers
to my questions.  I am used to Splus but I liked R for its fast response. I
downloaded the win98 version of R and I liked it.  Then I had to sit my UNIX
administrator to download the UNIX R version and got it installed.  The UNIX
administrator liked the binaries for R because they were easy to install on
our DEC-Alpha machines.  
I must thank to R-development team and R-help team for all this. 
  Best Regards

I was illustrating the use of R to some of my students 
here in the Philippines: 
The following question was posed:  "is there any 
motivation for the development
of the recycling rule for vector 
manipulation, especially for fractional replication?"
I had no idea how to answer this. 

Any ideas will be most appreciated.  Thanks.
