R help - Sep 2010 - Can ucminf be installed in 64 bit R and one more question?

Hey, R Users

my windows is 64 bit windows 7.?I am trying to install the package ucminf into 
my 64 bit version R but cannot.??the package I downloaded is from 
http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/ucminf/index.html?and I installed it with
the "install from local zip files", due to I did not connect my
computer to
internet. 


did anyone meet this problem and is there a version of ucminf for 64 bit R?

the question is: why the ucminf (for 32 bit R) with option hessian=3 always give
hessian matrix while most of other methods?failed (includiing the option 
hessian=1 which using numDeriv)?

thanks for any information

Binary installs are specific to particular R versions.  There are 
several versions of R with 64 bit Windows builds now; which one are you 
using?

Hey, Duncan

thanks for your reply. 

I am not sure which version i have installed but I downloaded it  from 
http://cran.skazkaforyou.com/. when I check the R installed, it says 2.11.1.

I do not know I answered your question or not. if not, where I can find them? 
(in fact, I did not notice/find there are many versions of 64 bit R.)

Nan

I don?t understand your question about the hessian.  Did you try hessian()
function in "numDeriv" on the result from optim directly rather than
using
"ucminf"?  Also, what do you mean by `failed'?  What error message
did you
get?

Ravi.

2.11.1 should be fine, but perhaps you tried to install the 32 bit 
version of the package into 64 bit R.  You can get the 64 bit package from

http://probability.ca/cran/bin/windows64/contrib/2.11/ucminf_1.0-5.zip

but first install the package it depends on,

http://probability.ca/cran/bin/windows64/contrib/2.11/numDeriv_2009.2-1.zip

thanks. Duncan. 

previously I try to install the 32 bit ucminf on a 64 bit R thus it cannot fit 
in. 


thanks for the link and I have downloaded? and installed it. it works perfect.
