Anyone know where I can reach the author of the compareGrowthCurves function? I'm having trouble with it.

The R Journal home page doesn't make any promises about how frequently the journal will be published. Historically, though, there have been issues in June and December of each year. The June issue has always appeared by this time (6 August) in previous years. Has there been a change in the publication schedule? Are there still plans for a June 2016 issue? Thanks Gordon

Dear all, I'm writing to ask for advice as to best practice. A PhD student working with me is writing C++ code that we hope to make public as src code in our Bioconductor package edgeR. He wants to call the function fmm_spline, which is part of the source code for the stats package http://svn.r-project.org/R/trunk/src/library/stats/src/splines.c, from his C++ code. This function

In R 2.1.1, the default behaviour of scan() was changed to process all C-style escapes, even when a delimiter was specified using the 'sep' argument. A new argument 'allowEscapes' was introduced to turn this processing off. Because read.table() calls scan(), read.table() inherits the new default behaviour of scan() but without a way to turn it off. For example, reading a file

Hi Peter and others, If it helps, I wrote a small function glm.scoretest() for the statmod package on CRAN to compute score tests from glm fits. The score test for adding a covariate, or any set of covariates, can be extracted very neatly from the standard glm output, although you probably already know that.

SuppDists is orphaned on CRAN (and has been since 2013). https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_.html Oddly, the simulate method for the inverse.gaussian family [inverse.gaussian()$simulate] depends (in a loose sense) on SuppDists (it fails if the SuppDists namespace is not available: if (!requireNamespace("SuppDists", quietly = TRUE)) stop("need CRAN

This is just a suggestion/wish that it would be nice for the F-distribution functions to recognize limiting cases for infinite degrees of freedom, as the t-distribution functions already do. The t-distribution functions recognize that df=Inf is equivalent to the standard normal distribution: > pt(1,df=Inf) [1] 0.8413447 > pnorm(1) [1] 0.8413447 On the other hand, pf() will accept Inf

Martin Maechler has suggested that I post this comment to r-devel. It was originally posted to bioconductor. --------------------------------- I'd like to raise the issue of a capitalization convention for naming objects in R. Almost everything in R used to be lowercase but recently there is increasing use of mixed upper/lower case to define names. There is potential for using the

Dear all, I am trying to write a package using formal methods and classes from the methods package. I have not been able to get the package to pass rcmd check without warnings, because rcmd check does not recognize my generic functions as code objects and therefore queries why they have documentation entries. I have isolated the problem in a very small trivial example which I give below. I

Should R CMD check consider it an error to define a new method using setMethod for a class which is not currently defined? It seems to me that it would be best not to consider this an error. What currently happens in that setMethod issues a warning, quite correctly. This warning produces an object 'last.warning'. Then R CMD check issues a WARNING that 'last.warning' is an

I am not sure if what I am asking below should be discussed under r-help or r-devel, so please feel free to move over to r-devel. This is a spin off from Gordon Smyth's question about generic functions and Robert Gentleman's reply. I have tried to raise the question before and I am sure this has been discussed by others, but never on the r-help list what I can see. My concern is that

I've noticed a curious interpretation of escaped characters in \examples{} in .Rd files. For example, if I type files <- dir(pattern="\\.txt") at the R prompt, I will get a vector containing all file names in the current directory containing the string ".txt". If I put \examples{ files <- dir(pattern="\\.txt") } in an .Rd file of a package,

If you are on glibc-2.24, did you patch it with the fix 24e2b1cede1952d7d4411a3cafd25dd8593dab9f that revert commits 80f87443eed17838fe453f1f5406ccf5d3698c25 and a824d609581d5ee7544aabcbbc70e8da44b2b5b6? I had to do that since it broke go, gcc, and clang address sanitizers without the patch. On 9/12/16, Renato Golin via llvm-dev <llvm-dev at lists.llvm.org> wrote: > On 11 September

Hi, I have two questions want to ask. 1. If I have a matrix like this, and I want to figure out the rows whose value in the 3rd column are less than 0.05.

This is just a note that R would get a lot more citations if the recommended citation was an article in a recognised journal or from a recognised publisher. I use R in work leading to publications often, and I strongly want to give the R core team credit for their work. However I find that I can't persuade my biological collaborators to include the current R citation (below) in their
