...up there, *not* on R-SIG-mac. 1) An R core colleague of mine had decided log1pexp() should be Rf_log1pexp() but had forgotten to update the documentation. This should be fixed one way (= documentation), or then, as it is the *only* function with name Rf_*() in the whole of standalone Rmathlib.{so,dynlib} by renaming it back to log1pexp(). 2) rnbeta(): This has been in the headers forever, but there has not been a corresponding function in R's C code. As you, can see, R's rbeta(*, ncp = v) currently just calls R code, and so there was never a need for a C level rnbeta...

Now, what is the correct way to code NA, NaN, Inf, and -Inf for these types? The documentation for read/writeBin doesnt contain any info on that ... (for int and string, there probably is only

Dear People, I have been writing a simulation routine that is currently entirely written in c++. I've been using the R standalone math library to give me random number generation for this. However, I have had to set the seed myself, and I am using set_seed(time(NULL), clock) for every call to unif_rand(). However, this works really badly. The random numbers aren't uniform at all. Does
