Hello all, I am trying to minimize a function which contains a double integral, using "nlminb" for the minimization and "adapt" for the integral. The integral is over two variables (thita and radiusb) and the 3 free parameters I want to derive from the minimization are counts0, index and radius_eff. I have used both tasks in the past successfully but this is the first time

Hi folks, I'd like to use scatter3d (which is in R commander) to plot more than one dataset in the same graph, each dataset with a different color. The kind of stuff you would do with "holdon" in Matlab. I read a recent message that was posted to this list with a similar problem, but I couldn't understand the reply. Could someone give me one example? How do you plot subgroups

Hello, has anybody written a function to plot density ellipses (95%, 99% or anything) in a scatterplot? I found nothing in any package, nor in the list archives. There does seem to be a contributed package "ellipse" for S-Plus (on S-Archive), but it does a lot more than what I would need. Still, if anybody ported it to R, I'd be grateful for...
