In polr.R the (several) functions gmin and fmin contain the code > theta <- beta[pc + 1L:q] > gamm <- c(-100, cumsum(c(theta[1L], exp(theta[-1L]))), 100) That's bad. There's no reason to suppose beta[pc+1L] is larger than -100 or that the cumulative sum is smaller than 100. For practical datasets those assumptions are frequently violated, causing the

Yesterday I was biten by a feature, which I find too dangerous. I wanted to use a factor `Subject?? as index into a data frame, whose row names were the levels of this factor. So there a 2 different possible interpretations of this: Either Subject is coerced to numeric or to character. The intended interpretation was, of course, `as.character(Subject)'. R did `as.numeric(Subject)??. This will

Version: 2.5.1 array() is inconsistent when given non-integral dimensions: > zz <- array(0,dim=c(4,3.01)) > dim(zz) [1] 4 3 > zz <- array(0,dim=c(201,4.05)) Error in dim(data) <- dim : dim<- : dims [product 804] do not match the length of object [814] [IMHO the code that did this is broken. My copy of it has been fixed. Consistent behavior and/or a clearer error message

Try this: fn <- "tmp.dat" x <- 1:3 dump("x",file=fn) file.info(fn) ## 9 bytes file.copy(paste("./",fn,sep=""),fn,overwrite=TRUE) file.info(fn) ## 0 bytes (!!) Normally file.copy() checks and disallows overwriting a file with itself, but it only checks whether character string 'from' is the same as character string 'to'

This is a bug/misfeature report for R CMD check. The function tools:::.check_packages_used_in_tests Gives an apparently unintended error when checking the tests in the contributed package rcdd_1.1-3.tar.gz as found on CRAN. See the script below for details. The actual error reported is totally mysterious. * checking for unstated dependencies in tests ... NOTE Error in

Why is that when you create a share, the default is 'msdfs root = yes'? Also, why is that a share that is set 'msdfs root = yes' -- or, rather, a share that does /not/ set 'msdfs root = no' -- advertises that it is a DFS root to the Linux CIFS client, /even /when 'host msdfs = no'? This sounds like A) a bug (ignoring 'host msdfs', and B) a misfeature (msdfs

Just starting a new thread so that it''s easy to follow. I just submitted a patch at trac to add a new class method called "set_default_values" ( not a great name I think ), which lets you do all kinds of crazy stuff with setting default values. This ticket is at http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/9093 and example pastie is at http://pastie.caboo.se/81925 It also lets you make

Dear All, Consider the following code: pdf(file="figure.pdf",family="URWPalladio") curve(dlnorm(x,0,1.5),0,10,xlim=c(0,10),ylim=c(0,0.85),axes=F,xlab="",ylab="f") segments(exp(-1.5^2),0,exp(-1.5^2),dlnorm(exp(-1.5^2),0,1.5),lty="dashed") segments(1,0,1,dlnorm(1,0,1.5),lty="dashed")

On which versions of FreeBSD is it now possible to un-reserve ports? ( I've been waiting for this since forever ... have spent countless days - $$$ - trying to install workarounds, only to junk them later. I've even been paid a consulting gig to develop this, and declined to deploy it on my own servers :-/ ) iang

We just noticed an interesting bug/misfeature on our Samba 4.9.4 servers (FreeBSD 11.2). The same effect is also visible on Samba 4.8.3 on CentOS 7. Start with a directory that looks like this: root at filur00:/tmp/test # ls -la total 50 drwxrwx--- 2 peter86 uf-iti-all 3 Feb 27 11:27 . drwxrwxrwt 10 root wheel 56 Feb 27 16:41 .. -rw-rw---- 1 mikha02 uf-iti-all 6 Feb 27 11:27

I'm going to file this bug but it's kind of a blocker for me so maybe someone has time to look at it. Should be nearly trivial to fix. It's a bug in the way the "section" attribute of functions is processed. Consider the following code: void x(int i) __attribute((section(".mySection,\"aw\", at progbits#"))); void x(int i) { } If you compile this

Should be nearly trivial to fix. I don't think this is a bug, but a misfeature in GCC due to the way it does (non-)escaping. Joerg

Hi all How to add a static route to a hostname with iproute2? I tried: ip route add linux.com via 192.168.1.1 I got the following reply: Error: an inet prefix is expected rather than "linux.com". With "route command" I do not have problems route add -host linux.com gw 200.214.148.140 As the iproute2 is the standard in the current linus distros, I would like to know if is

Starting from version 3.0.2 (or .3?) there were a misfeature that caused workgroup names to show up as duplicates in workstations' browse lists. Fix for this didn't reach into 3.0.5-pre1, but rc1 had this fixed. Today I upgraded 3.0.5-rc1 to 3.0.5-2 (FC2 binary rpm from samba.org) and the problem reappeared. To be more spesific, the problem appears when there are more that one workgroup

I believe I have found a bug (or at least a misfeature) in plot.POSIXct. See the following example code. set.seed(1) x=seq(1,1e8,length=100)+round(runif(100)*1e8) y=as.POSIXct(x,origin="2001-01-01") plot(y) This plots some random (date)times against their indices. The y axis correctly shows appropriate values (years), but the x axis contains the single number '59:58' in the

OK, I think I've hit a misfeature in samba 3.0(release, Debian/sid) when it comes to using both Samba BDCs and domain trusts. It seems that the domain trust password is stored in the secrets.pdb on the server establishing the trust. This, obviously doesn't facilitate BDCs exercising the trust relationship, or being at all accessable from workstations on the other side of the trust. I

Hello, I had been thinking for years, without having ever checked (shame on me), that indexing a named vector by a factor 'f' produced the same results as indexing it by 'as.character(f)'. I was wrong, as the following example shows: (m <- c(a=1,b=2)) (f <- factor(c(1,2),labels=c('b','a'))) m[f] m[as.character(f)] m[as.numeric(f)] When the

I just realized this message went to the wrong place. I meant to send this to the list.
