...myself (and make a note to that effect in the documentation)? (I guess another general solution to this is to ask for lists of arguments, like MoreArgs in mapply(). Another would be to go back and change spheres3d to make size a synonym for radius ... ) any thoughts?

Please, I would like to know how to generate a truncated multivariate normal distribution k - dimensional, X ~ NT(mu, Sigma), where the elements of X to be non-negative (except the first), and the first dimension is strictly larger than zero. Example: X ~ NT_2(mu, Sigma), where mu=c(0.5, 0.5) and Sigma=c([120, 191], [191,154]), with X_1>0 and X_2>=0 Could anybody help

Dear all, I have the following output generated by linear regression. Since there is only one regression intercept and one slope for one set of data, what is the meaning of std. error for intercept and that of slope? Thanks in advance.

R help list subscribers, I am a new user of R. I am attempting to use R to explore a set of equations specifying the dynamics of a three trophic level food chain. I have put together this code for the function that is to be evaluted by LSODA. My equations Rprime, Cprime, and Pprime are meant to describe the actual equation of the derivative. When I run LSODA, I do not get the output that

Dear list members, I want to fit a nonlinear mixed model using the nlme command. My dependent variable takes the form of event counts for different countries over a number of years, and hence I was going to fit a mixed effects negative binomial model. The problem, as far as I can glean from Pinheiro & Bates 2000, is that I need a model that is not normal in the errors. All the models they

I'm getting pretty much identical results to this from the archive: http://lists.samba.org/archive/rsync/2004-April/009187.html, and as far as I can see the only suggestion there was to check permissions. I have one further complication too- I'm trying to sync a remote server on to a vmware virtual disk that I've mounted using the
