Hi Folks, There has been past correspondence regarding Catherine Loader's Bell Labs (oops, Lucent) paper "Fast and Accurate Computation of Binomial Probabilities" which gives the algorithm on which R's dbinom() is based. The original URL given in the R documentation "?dbinom" is: http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/ms/departments/sia/cat...

...using the package from Prof. Loader's web page, instead of the one on CRAN, if you want the new features.

On the local documentation page for Binomial, i.e. http://127.0.0.1:xxxx/library/stats/html/Binomial.html The link to Catherine Loader's paper "Catherine Loader (2000). *Fast and Accurate Computation of Binomial Probabilities*; available from http://www.herine.net/stat/software/dbinom.html." appears to be broken.

Hello, All: The vignette with the sos package used "upquote.sty", required for R Journal when it was published in 2009. Current CRAN policy disallows "upquote.sty", and I've so far not found a way to pass "R CMD check" with sos without upquote.sty. I changed sos.Rnw per an email exchange with Prof. Ripley without solving the problem; see below. The

In principle a good idea, but I'm not sure the whereabouts of Catherine Loader are known at this point. Last peeps from her on the net seem to be about a decade old. .pd > On 18 May 2020, at 10:31 , Abby Spurdle <spurdle.a at gmail.com> wrote: > > This has come up before. > > Here's the last time: > https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel...

What about using the Wayback Machine archive ? The web archive should be more stable than other links which also might disappear in the future. E.g. https://web.archive.org/web/20070610002602/http://www.herine.net/stat/software/dbinom.html , which also links to an archived copy of the PDF.
