dnorm() lead to a probability >1
Howdee, One of my student spotted something I can't explain: a probability >1 vs a normal probability density function. > dnorm(x=1, mean=1, sd=0.4) [1] 0.9973557 > dnorm(x=1, mean=1, sd=0.39) [1] 1.022929 > dnorm(x=1, mean=1, sd=0.3) [1] 1.329808 > dnorm(x=1, mean=1, sd=0.1) [1] 3...

I want to model the growth of each of a large number of individuals using a 4-parameter logistic growth curve. 2. nlme does not converge with the random structure that I want to use. 3. nlsList does not converge for some individuals. 4. I decided to go arou...

nlsList - Error in !unlist(lapply(coefs, is.null))
Howdee, I am able to fit a 4-parameter logistic growth curve to a dataset which comprise many individuals (using R v. 2.3.1). Yet, if I want to obtain the parameters for each individual (i.e., for each 'id') using nlsList, then I obtain an Error message which I have trouble interpreting. Any advi...

productivity tools in R?
Hi all, Could anybody point me to some latest productivity tools in R? I am interested in speeding up my R programming and improving my efficiency in terms of debugging and developing R programs. I saw my friend has a R Console window which has automatic syntax reminder when he types in the first a few letters of R command. And he's using R under MAC. Is that a MAC thing, or I could do the
