Hi, As some of you know, one of the R Projects ideas for GSOC 2009 is to expand the crantastic.org portal. Some ideas for what should be done is mentioned in Hadley Wickham's project description [1], others have been briefly mentioned on this mailing list before. Undoubtedly, however, there are many other good ideas out there that could be implemented. Please suggest any ideas you might have

Under the "further resources" section I'd like to suggest the following addition : * http://crantastic.org/ lists popular packages according to other users votes. Consider briefly reviewing the top 30 packages before posting to r-help since someone may have already released a package that solves your problem. Thats just a straw man idea so I hope there will be answer, or

Hi all, Here's my idea for the google summer of code - it's a resubmission from last year. We had a couple of interested students, but their proposals weren't quite competitive enough to get funding. Regards, Hadley Summary: Create an information portal for the fast growing list of R packages, integrating package documentation and journal publications with feedback from the useR

Does anyone have some nice ways of showing what's on CRAN? A time-series of the number of packages? A clustered graph of packages by keyword? I'm just after a more impressive way of saying "there's 2600 packages on CRAN" than saying that. Counts of lines of R and C/Fortran code would be interesting... The CRANtastic tag cloud is quite handy... Anything else? Barry

Hello all, I am looking for the function benchmark2 ( a nice function for comparing the performance of two or more functions). I found online it exists in the butler package http://crantastic.org/packages/butler But for some reason, that package was removed from CRAN: http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/butler/ It can still be downloaded from the archive, but I am wondering if it had moved

Are there implementations of, e.g. Neville's algorithm, for interpolating polynomials through some data points? Nevilles' is an improvement on Lagrange interpolation. And how about interpolating rational functions? I could not find anything at rseek.org or at crantastic.org. thanks -- View this message in context:

Does anyone know if there's an easy facility to create and specify a template file to be used for new R scripts? I found myself creating this function which works well (in RStudio on Windows). newR = function(filename=tempfile(tmpdir='.',fileext='.R'), open=TRUE) { template = paste(Sys.getenv('R_USER'), 'R_template.R', sep='/') lines =

Dear R folks, I need to simulate first passage times for iterated partial sums. The related papers are for example [1][2]. As a start I want to simulate how long a simple random walk stays negative, which should result that it behaves like n^(-?). My code looks like this. -------- 8< -------- code -------- >8 -------- n = 100000 # number of simulations length = 100000 # length of

Hello folks, I've been on a journey trying to figure out how to manage documents that are amenable to sharing and editing, but that contain dynamic content generated by R. I've come to the following solution: I use Sweave to generate labeled png & pdf figures, and I "Insert & Link" those figures as "Pictures" in a Word 2010 doc. Thus, when data or code

Hi all, I need to do massive simulations in the next two years. I estimated that I will need about 64GB memory, if I do not want to split up the calculations. Additionally I would like to have it as fast as possible. Can R handle multi-core processors and can all standard operating systems handle the same amount of memory and speed? Perhaps someone could point me to a webshop that sales

Dear All, I would like to introduce the above-named new package that is now available on CRAN: https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/skedastic/index.html The package features numerous 'classical' heteroskedasticity tests (some not previously available in any published R package) as well as one very new test that appeared in the literature only in 2019. Feedback on bugs/issues is most
