...all, of these people once warranted the trust reposed in them. However, as the Bernie Madoff case shows once again, trust without verification invites betrayal. Money is a very corrosive material to place in the hands of people absent public oversight. It needs to be treated with both caution and circumspection lest it destroy that which it is intended to aid. That is why some people very much care about how it is handled. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

Dear R-list, I try to use StructTS for some univariate time series, with a type="BSM". I have two questions: 1-in the "fitted" value of the object, it seems to me that for getting back fitted values, one have to add level, slope and seasonal (or "level" contains already the two other ones) 2-i am really circumspect about the results of "KalmanForecast"

Having tried all the hints in DIAGNOSIS.txt, and having no success, and being unable to decrypt the error codes (does anyone have a list of these?) I send this to you all in the hope you can figure it out. FYI: I'm running 1.9.18p8, upgraded from 1.9.16p9. I got the exact same errors on both versions. I'm running debug level 5 to try and find some clue to the problem. I did have samba

Hello, Is there any binary version of R 2.8.x available for x86 Solaris 10? I need it so that I can use some R library files. I actually tried to compile the source myself, but it failed. I don't know much about how to compile source files on Solaris, and it will be great if there is a binary version of R 2.8.x available. Thanks. /***error after running make***/ util.c: In function

Hello all, I am fishing for some suggestions on efficient ways to make qdist and pdist type functions from an arbitrary distribution whose probability density function I've defined myself. For example, let's say I have a distribution whose pdf is: dRN <- function(x,d,v,s) # d, v, and s are parameters return(d/x^2/sv/sqrt(2*pi)*exp(-(d-v*x)^2/2/(sv^2*x^2))) this is a legitimate

This situation arose in a computer practical this morning. A student overwrote "c" with a function. This messes up lots of things, but it is difficult to remove the function "c" from the global environment because it is used as a function in both "rm" and "remove". [The solution was to reassign "c" as a number, and then remove it.] Would it be

Hi: I have a function as follows: my.plot <- function( x, y = NULL, ... ) { plot( x, y, cex.axis=0.5, ...) } Set up the variables: x <- 1:10; y <- x; tdf <- data.frame( x, y ); main.str <- "test" I will exercise the function in two ways: > my.plot( y ~ x, tdf, main = "test" ) This works fine > my.plot( y ~ x, tdf, main = main.str ) Error in

The generic-abi thread has gone into broader subjects of the benefits and desireability of the work. I'm willing to take it as given that the encoded size of pure-relative address relocs (i.e. R_*_RELATIVE equivalents)--ultimately the RODATA segment size of a given ET_DYN file--as sole metric is a worthy goal and the ballpark savings ratios we're seeing are worth committing to a new ABI.

Dear R Helpers, I am trying to extract the modulus from divisions by a sequence of fractions. I noticed that %% seems to behave inconsistently (to my untutored eye), thus: > 0.1%%0.1 [1] 0 > 0.2%%0.1 [1] 0 > 0.3%%0.1 [1] 0.1 > 0.4%%0.1 [1] 0 > 0.5%%0.1 [1] 0.1 > 0.6%%0.1 [1] 0.1 > 0.7%%0.1 [1] 0.1 > 0.8%%0.1 [1] 0 > 0.9%%0.1 The modulus for 0.1, 0.2, 0.4 and 0.8 is

I'd like to suggest that this is now a great time to create two separate cvs branches for the rsync product. One, which I'll tentatively call 2_5, would hold the version of the code that has been released to the world as 2.5.6. The other, which I'll tentatively call head, would hold the development activity leading up to the next field release. I'm not bound to these names, but I

Good morning: We're about to start moving our public DNS to in-house managed servers. My first thought was "Linux + BIND" and we're done. Someone in another business unit's IT dept. has suggested tinydns be used. >From what I could find, it looks like this software hasn't really had any community drive behind it in a while. The latest RPMs on rpmforge are for red hat

Patches welcome, eh, Paul? Upon further (belated) investigation, there are 2 affected places in receiver.c with this error message. Both call write_file(). And write_file is called only in those two places. So that is the appropriate location to patch. Especially since the obvious fix is to use the rewrite code already there for the sparse file writes.

Hi all, I''m putting together a OpenSolaris ZFS-based system and need help picking hardware.

Has anyone yet figured out what it would take to make Xen run on top of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 beta? We are heavily invested in Xen under RHEL5 (actually a redhat clone) distribution, but already the xen kernel they are shipping with update 4 and 5 is shaky and has bugs which they don''t seem to be in a hurry to fix. Basically I am wondering if Redhat 6 is just going to have

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, this is a new attempt to improve the output of the command "btrfs fi df". The previous attempt received a good reception. However there was no a general consensus about the wording. Moreover I still didn''t understand how btrfs was using the disks. A my first attempt was to develop a new command which shows how the disks
