Hi all, I'm currently working on the fitdistrplus package (that basically fit distributions). There is something I do not understand about the generic function summary. In the current version on CRAN, there is no NAMESPACE saying S3method(summary, fitdist) . However if we use summary on an object send by fitdist function it works fine... According to R-lang, we have " The most

Hi all, I tried to a nice legend with small boxes filled with the colors used for the plots. But it does nor work, boxes are always filled with black. An example is here plot(1:4,1:4) lines(1:4,4:1, col="blue") legend("top",leg=c("a","b"),col=c("black","blue"), fill=TRUE) How could I specify the colors? the argument col.box is the

Hi, I have a problem when checking the package 'probdistr' (on probability distributions). I got this warning * checking index information ... WARNING Vignettes with missing or empty \VignetteIndexEntry: [1] "probdistr-chi" "probdistr-contextra" "probdistr-discrete" [4] "probdistr-discrextra" "probdistr-exp"

Dear list, Don't you think it could be useful to have in R base a function rowCumSums, that compute cumulative sums for each row of a matrix? My implementation of rowCumSums is rowCumSums <- function(x) t(mapply(function(row)cumsum(x[row,]), 1:NROW(x))) I'm sure it can be improved to have other arguments like na.rm or dims. Is there any hope to have this function in R?

Hi useRs, I'm trying to fit a basic AR(2) model with the 'ar' function. And when I try to check the value of the coefficients, I could not find the same value as the 'ar' function. Here is my example: myserie <- c(212, 205, 210, 213, 217, 222, 216, 218, 220, 212, 215, 236) #plot(myserie, type="l") myserieminus0 <- tail(myserie, -2) myserieminus1 <-

Dear useRs, I have just discovered that the R optim function does not return the number of iterations. I still wonder why line 632-634 of optim C, the iter variable is not returned (for the BFGS method for example) ? Is there any trick to compute the iteration number with function call number?

Dear list, I would like to suggest a small update the ?Distributions man page of the stats package. The current version contains the following line. The CRAN package \pkg{SuppDists} for additional distributions. I think it would be better to put in this man page a link to the CRAN task view on Distributions http://cran.r-project.org/web/views/Distributions.html. It is not true that the

Dear useRs, I was wondering how to deal with data where thousands separator is a space or a comma? with google, I thought I found the answer but the thread ( http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/06/04/25524.html) just focuses on decimal separator. Is there any function to numbers written like this in a csv file? Thanks in advance Christophe -- Christophe DUTANG Ph. D. student at ISFA

Dear all, I have just found a 'good' tutorial R for datamining. I think it should be on the contributed docs. http://cran.r-project.org/other-docs.html Here is the link http://www.liaad.up.pt/~ltorgo/DataMiningWithR/ What do you think?

Dear list, The task view on optimization does not reference a package for non linear constrained optimization problems. Stefan Theussl told me to look at the Rsolnp package, but unfortunately it is not very clear what method is R ported. (The authors ported the matlab code of Yinyu Ye http://www.stanford.edu/~yyye/ <http://www.stanford.edu/%7Eyyye/>) Currently I'm looking for an

Hi, I would like to draw arrows in a classic 2D plot. Which package should I use? is there R base functions that do job? On google, I could not find any useful discussion about this topic, except a link to the function 'grid.arrows' of the grid package. My problem is I would like to draw arrows at the edge of circles drawn by the 'symbols' function. Maybe there is already a

Thanks for your email. I try to change the name in lowercase but it conflicts with a C implementation also named halton. So I rename the C function halton2() and sobol2() while the Fortran function are HALTON() and SOBOL() (I also try lower case in the Fortran code). Unfortunately, it does not help since I get init.c:97:25: error: use of undeclared identifier 'halton_'; did you mean

Dear both, I have found that names are not treated in the same way in optim() depending on the optimization method (argument method). The example below shows the difference between the Brent method and the L-BFGS-B method. f <- function(x){ y <- x^2;names(y) <-"f(x)";y} optim(10, f, method="Brent", lower=-1, upper=10)$value optim(10, f, method="L-BFGS-B",

Hi all, I need to transform classic 32bit Fortran code to 64bit Fortran code, see the discussion [R-SIG-Mac] rnorm.halton. But I'm clearly a beginner in Fortran... Does someone already do this for his package? From here, http://techpubs.sgi.com/library/tpl/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?coll=linux&db=bks&fname=/SGI_Developer/Porting_Guide/ch03.html , I identify the following changes

Dear list, I?m trying to register Fortran routines in randtoolbox (in srt/init.c file), see https://r-forge.r-project.org/scm/viewvc.php/pkg/randtoolbox/src/init.c?view=markup&root=rmetrics. Reading https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-exts.html#Registering-native-routines and looking at what is done in stats package, I first thought that the following code will do the job:

Have you tried using tools:::package_native_routine_registration_skeleton()? If you don't like its output, you can easily edit its results and still avoid most pitfalls.

Hi all, I have a question regarding the memory usage for the attach function. Say I have a data.frame inputdat that I create with read.csv. I would like to know what happens on the memory side when I use attach(inputdata) Is there a second allocation of memory for inputdata? Then I'm using eval on a expression which depends on the columns of inputdata. Is it better not to use attach

Hello, I submitted this bug report to r-core and got a rejection saying I should post to r-help. This is my first time ever submitting a bug report, so forgive me if I'm using some wrong format.

Dear useRs, We are happy to announce a new version of the randtoolbox* package (version 1.09) on CRAN. The package is dedicated to Random Number Generation and in a less exhaustive way to RNG tests. The package is source-controlled at r-forge as part of the Rmetrics project http://r-forge.r-project.org/projects/rmetrics/ . We invite you to take a look at the NEWS section to know the
