New package: colSums
...;m probably exacerbating roundoff error when mu >> sigma. I personally don't worry because in finance, mu (return) is never >> sigma (risk) :-). The S-Plus documentation for colVars claims they do something fancy with the "two-pass method described in Chan, Golub, and LeVeque (1983)" that I don't know anything about. - I convert integers, logicals, and complex immediately to reals, which is probably inefficient. Brian Ripley's version seems to do a better job. - S-Plus does not have "rowStdevs" for reasons unknown, since it is simply defin...

cumVar and cumSkew
Hi there, I need to do the same thing as cumsum but with the variance and skewness.

t-test via matrix operations
I need to calculate a large number of t statistics, and would like to do so via matrix operations. So far I have figured out a way to calculate the mean of each row of the matrix: d <- matrix(runif(100000,1,10), 1000, 10) # some test data s <- rep(1,ncol(d)) # a sum vector to use for matrix multiplication means <- (d%*%s)/ncol(d) This is at least 1 order of magnitude faster than
