R help - Jan 2004 - BVLS

Hi

Is there an R package that solves linear least squares with upper and lower
bounds on the variables. Something like the Parker and Stark algorithm written
in Fortran.

thanks

Probably not, but this is an easy application of
optim(method="L-BFGS")
or of solve.QP() in package quadprog.
