Fascinating. The script runs fine in 3.2.5, but won't run in 3.4.3 even with ALL lines commented out. I have no idea what that means. I can't imagine I found a 3.4.3 bug no one knows about.

...this same manner, with the same path to the script itself, and they go off without a hitch. Although this is the first time I am using 3.4.3, and the only script I am using that version of R for at the moment. Having said that, I did TRY reversing the slashes and got the same result. :-) Michael Ashton, CFA Managing Principal Enduring Investments LLC W: 973.457.4602 C: 551.655.8006 -----Original Message----- From: Duncan Murdoch [mailto:murdoch.duncan at gmail.com] Sent: Friday, February 02, 2018 8:16 AM To: Michael Ashton; r-help at r-project.org Subject: Re: [R] command line fails On 02/02...

...mand, but again...it worked for a long time and I don't think it's the inputs that are wonky. Perhaps an update of R was incompatible with Rexcel? I've updated Rexcel to 3.2.16 but it made no difference. Any suggestions of what to try will be warmly entertained!

...you sure that you have defined Mo.vect correctly? It is a scalar the way you have written it. 3. Similarly your definition of wgt.vect creates a scalar.

I am having a hard time with 'next'. I come from the "sloppy" school that learned BASIC with Goto. Conceptually next seems pretty straightforward. I just can't get it to work correctly in my code.
