off topic but need your pointers about statistics
Hi all, I apologize for this off-topic question but I need your help -- I know there are lots of experts here. As a lover and student of statistics, I am thinking of building a tree of various branches of statistics and keeping track of the greatest historical inventions/discoveries in statistics and the latest development of each branch. The goal is to understand in what context did the great

cdf function: inverse to quantile?
Is there a function in R for calculating empirical cumulative distribution functions, i.e. the inverse of the quantile function? Perhaps in some library? I''d hate to have to re-invent the wheel.

Dummy variables model
Hi, all! Anyone know an easy way to specify the following model. Panel dataset, with stock through time, by firm. I want to run a model of y on a bunch of explanatory variables, and one dummy for each firm, which is 1 for observations that come from firm i, and 0 everywhere else. I have over 200 firms (and a factor variable that contains a firm identifier). Any easy way of going about

Re-inventing the Wheel (again?)
...min must change to deploy a linux server in prod or dev Even though puppetlabs has a modules repo, if you look for some basic modules: sudoer, resolv.conf, ifcfg, there a numerous "instances" of modules by users. Each with their own idiosyncrasies. Why do admins have to keep re-inventing the wheel for each iteration of Config Mgmt and Monitoring tools. Has anyone created a "repo" of puppet modules for a given linux distro. In my case CentOS. Seems there should be (at this point) /etc/puppet/modules/CentOSx, that includes all the necessary modules/manifest etc. tha...

Automating binning for chisq.test()
...the necessary binning as well as the actual statistical test? (Yes, you can accuse me of laziness: I just don't fancy trying to figure out a routine that would make sure that there more than 5 samples in each of the expected bins before applying the chi-squared test. It seems too much like re-inventing an elementary wheel that must have been invented by someone else.)

Status of s3tc patent in respect to open-source drivers and workarounds
Hi radeonhd, nouveau, mesa3d developers, Firstly, thank you all very much for all the important work you do. I've been working as a part-time developer on the "Spring RTS" project (open-source game engine) which runs on linux (and other os). Some time ago I tried the engine on the open-source ATI radeonhd driver, which I understand to be partly based on mesa 3d, and all textures

DID in the U.S.
Hello! There is something I really don't get: As I ordered a PRI ISDN line in Germany with DID, I had not to pay anything for a "DID number block", now I'm trying to get a PRI ISDN in the U.S. (CA) and SBC wants to charge more than 200 USD/month for numbers. I mean, this has nothing to do with DID, where everything that comes after the "base number" will be

Possible bug in handling of HTML comments
It appears that Markdown will process ampersands contained within HTML comments if that comment is part of a markdown paragraph, but will not when that paragraph is contained within an HTML block of it's own (and therefore ignored by Markdown.) For example: This is a markdown paragraph with a comment that *will* be processed <!-- This & *will* be converted -->

It would be optional and if absent, would be infinite (which preserves existing semantics). The parameter is best put on the loop instead of each access. That...

combn(n, k, ...) and all its re-inventions
It seems people are reinventing the wheel here: The goal is to generate all combinations of 1:n of size k. This (typically) results in a matrix of size k * choose(n,k) i.e. needs O(n ^ k) space, hence is only applicable to relatively small k. Then alternatives have been devised to generate the combinations "one by one&quo...
