Hello ! I'm already using "fBasics" to generate alpha-stable variables or compute their density or distribution function but do you know where I could find .R tools for computing the correlation and fit a regression between two alpha-stable variables ? Thanks in advance ! Kind regards, Pascal Grosbuis (France) [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I was using the hist() function to create a frequency table of some network traffic data. The range in values is rather large, from 0 till just under 10e12. Calling hist(x, breaks=c(0,1000,1e6,1e9,1e12),plot=F,freq=T) causes hist() to return : $breaks [1] -1.0000e+05 1.0100e+05 1.1000e+06 1.0001e+09 1.0000e+12 Is this recalculation of the breaks by hist() intended?
