I believe this may be more related to analysis than it is to R, per se. Suppose I have the following function that I wish to integrate: ff <- function(x) pnorm((x - m)/sigma) * dnorm(x, observed, sigma) Then, given the parameters: mu <- 300 sigma <- 50 m <- 250 target <- 200 sigma_i <- 50 I can use the function integrate as: > integrate(ff, lower= -Inf, upper=target)

Hi all, I just installed R 2.4.1 and tried to install the package 'sp' working down from the 'Packages' menu in the R GUI.

Hello How do you compare R to SAS in terms of speed and management of large datasets? What about Revolution R? I've seen on their site, they claim that Revolution R is much faster than R and it's multithread... Can you really notice the difference?. What dissadvantage does it have? I think it's based on R 2.10. but R already issued the version 2.12 Regards What alternative

Hello, I see the following issue in R-devel since 'both' has become the default pkgType for binary platforms. update.packages() fails when you set options(repos). Looks like it is trying to download a tgz file from the src/contrib section of a repository (on a mac). To reproduce this you need to have an older version of AnnotationDbi installed, which I accomplished by faking it,

Ah, I spoke too soon. I started putting the demo code into a test suite and ran one check with valgrind and ? sure enough ? there's def more issues (a cpl functions) than the overt/easy ones (and, I went back to the check results page and, also sure enough, they're there, too). They look to be fairly straightforward to resolve but it's going to take a bit longer than "this
