I read this paper <https://www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~ihaka/downloads/Compstat-2008.pdf> and haven't been able to find out what happened - I have seen some sporadic mention in message groups but nothing definitive. Does anyone know? [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Why is the described system preferable to Julia?

It does look like Gentleman and Ihaka not only lied to the New York Times, but also to the New Zealand Herald and who knows who else. This is disgusting. The R programming language is the S programming language, and Gentleman and Ihaka are not the ones who designed it. http://thenewyorktimesissloppy.blogspot.com/

I came across a quite interesting post from Ross Ihaka, thought would be good to share it and get the opinion of folks around here. I am not sure where to post this for the R community but since it has to do with development I thought or R-devel Ross Ihaka Newsgroups: comp.lang.lisp From: Ross Ihaka <ih... at stat.auckland.ac.nz> Date: Wed, 23...

In their paper, "Lexical Scope and Statistical Computing", the authors ( Gentleman and Ihaka ) go to great length explaining why R's use of lexical scoping creates advantages when doing statistical computations. If anyone has or is familiar with this paper, could they provide the main program code for how the "newton" function would be called in their example on page 500 of...

...now of the places I came by, so you might be able to follow/participate in these (IMHO) important discussions. The discussions started in the response for the following blog post on Xi'An's blog: http://xianblog.wordpress.com/2010/09/06/insane/ Followed by the (short) response post by Ross Ihaka: http://xianblog.wordpress.com/2010/09/13/simply-start-over-and-build-something-better/ Other discussions started to appear on Andrew Gelman's blog: http://www.stat.columbia.edu/~cook/movabletype/archives/2010/09/ross_ihaka_to_r.html And (many) more responses started to appear in the hackers ne...

Hi, The R FAQ suggests that we can cite Ihaka and Gentleman (1996) in publications. Does anyone have an electronic copy of this that could be (legally) made publically available -- my library here doesn't take this journal (Journal of Computational and Graphical Statistics). Otherwise, I can order it through interlibrary loan. Thanks, St...

Dear friends, I try to get started with R and can’t estimate kurtosis of a random sample by using one command. I have installed R 1.6.2. Please help. Max --------------------------------- ur needs [[alternate HTML version deleted]]

Hi folks: Is there a lookup function that returns the variate given the cumulative probability for an object returned by the density(...) function? > mydata _ as.vector(mymatrix) > mydata.density _ density(mydata) > mydata.p80 _ lookup(mydata.density, p=0.8) # is there any function to accomplish this task? Thanks. Rajiv. -------- Rajiv Prasad, Postdoctoral Research Associate,

(1) ?cbind claims The generic functions `cbind' and `rbind' take a sequence of vector and/or matrix arguments and combine them as the columns or rows, respectively, of a matrix. Note: The method dispatching is not done via `UseMethod(..)', but by C-internal dispatching. Therefore, there's no need for, e.g., `rbind.default'. but my cbind.ts

thanks to all for the 2d scatter plot. i have one more. how do i plot 'hist(y1, col="red") and hist(y2,col="blue") in the same window? thanks again.

Dear friends: It's possible make a legend in the coplot output? My data are: "dados"<-structure (list ( Qu1 = c(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,3,2), Qu2 = c(3,4,5,6,7,8,9,9,6,3), Ku1 = structure (factor ( c(1,1,1,1,2,1,2,2,1,1),levels=1:2),.Label=c("Kmin","Kmax")), Ph1 = structure (factor (

Hi, I'm a beginner of R. I find it absoluty fantastic, flexible and very extensible. For the moment only a curiosity.. Why the name R? (are they perhaps the initials of Robert Gentleman and Ross Ihaka?, or is the name correlated with S language?)

Hi Z I think supporting HCL color spaces more, is a *very* good idea. However, I doubt many R users, understand the motivation for HCL color spaces. I've reproduced Ross Ihaka's notes on color, on my personal website: https://sites.google.com/site/spurdlea/exts/ihaka_r_stats_787_10_color.pdf (This has been reproduced with permission). Another good article is: https://www.r-project.org/conferences/DSC-2003/Proceedings/Ihaka.pdf And the colorspace package vignette i...

...like plotting the values of some variable (e.g. a SMR) on a given map.] Searching the r-help mailing list archives, it seems this topic comes up from time to time. For example, in November 1999 Ray Brownrigg writes about an "R maps package" (but for Linux only), and in October 2000 Ross Ihaka tells about work on "getting the Becker-Wilks Maps in S code working in R" and "putting together an R library for reading, writing, plotting and manipulating shapefiles". So my question is, what kind of stuff (if any) is currently available for a Windows user? (Looking on CRAN,...
