There are now several R geographic user groups, and a few have mailing lists on the R mailing list system. Thanks to Martin M, there's also a pointer to a page I'm maintaining to list/describe the groups. The page is at http://macnash.telfer.uottawa.ca/RUG.html Contact me if you have a listing. I'm prepared to wikify it if there is sufficient interest. John Nash

Ravi Varadhan and I have been looking at UCMINF to try to identify why it gives occasional (but not reproducible) errors, seemingly on Windows only. There is some suspicion that its use of DBLEPR for finessing the Fortran WRITE() statements may be to blame. While I can find DBLEPR in Venables and Ripley, it doesn't get much mention after about 2000 in the archives, though it is in the R FAQ

Hello all, I have a view which display html based on the value of a variable. Here''s the code : <% if @language == ''e'' %> <%= link_to "Fran&ccedil;ais", :action => :index, :id => "f" %> <% end %> In my test, I''m trying to set the value of the variable first, but that just doesn''t seem to work : it

predict.warn() -- a function to display factor levels in new data for linear model prediction that do not exist in the estimating data. Date: 2005-8-24 From: John C. Nash (with thanks to Uwe Ligges for suggestions) nashjc at uottawa.ca Motivation: In computing predictions from a linear model using factors, it is possible to introduce new factor levels. This was encountered on a practical level in forecasting retail sales where certain events had not occurred during the estimation period but did occur during the validation (i....

Hi All, I am new comer here and for Statistics R. I want to know how to use R to calculate one way repeated measure ANOVA, for example, on three groups of data. I appreciate if someone can help me solve this problem. John

Hello, Here''s a test I wrote for cookies: it "should change language when params[:id] is present" do cookies[:thothle_language] = ''e'' get ''index'', :id => ''f'' response.cookies["thothle_language"].should equal(''f'') end The error I get is the following: ...expected

I was preparing a fix for a minor glitch in my optimx package and R CMD check gave an error that the title was not in title case. It is A Replacement and Extension of the optim() Function R CMD check suggests the incorrect form A Replacement and Extension of the Optim() Function 'Writing R Extensions' suggests single quotes, i.e., A Replacement and Extension of the 'optim()'

Is there a list for discussing Rails internals or is that kind of one of those jealously guarded secret things? Also, I seem to be being a bit of a prat today, but if you read this closely: http://www.rubyonrails.org/images/headlines/community.gif Bit of a grammatical error there. (Sorry!) Giles

I've been creating some R tools that manipulate objective functions for optimization. In so doing, I create a character string with R code, and then want to have it in my workspace. Currently -- and this works fine -- I write the code out, then use source() to bring it in again. Example: cstr<-"jack<-function(x){\n cat(\"Silly x:\")\n print(x) \n }\n" write(cstr,

Dear all, I have prepared a new package to install in R, I tried to check my package and I got the following message ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 232sub141:~ zahra$ R CMD check /Users/zahra/Desktop/HighProbability * checking for working latex ...

I spent more time than I should have debugging a script because I wanted x<-seq(0,100)*0.1 but typed x<-seq(O:100)*0.1 seq(0:100) yields 1 to 101, Clearly my own brain to fingers fumble, but possibly one others may want to avoid it. JN
