Full_Name: Frederic Schutz Version: 1.6.1 OS: Linux Submission from: (NULL) (128.250.252.193) The subject says everything... This has already been proposed in June 2001 (cf http://maths.newcastle.edu.au/~rking/R/help/01a/2333.html), but no reply followed. I attach the patch that I used on my system to add this feature (including an updated help page), if it can help. Sorry, the two

Today's R-devel has a problem in `example(medpolish)'. It appears that the `plot.medpolish' method is not available. Here is the output and traceback() after starting `R --vanilla': > library(eda) > example(medpolish) mdplsh> deaths <- rbind(c(14, 15, 14), c(7, 4, 7), c(8, 2, 10), c(15, 9, 10), c(0, 2, 0)) mdplsh> dimnames(deaths) <-

Hi, I am using "line" function to plot the line. And I would like to understand "Tukeyline" algorithm. Since, the line function is calling the Tukeyline algorithm(which is compiled code) using foreign function interface, I am not able to look into the source code of this algorithm. Can somebody help me out, so that I can refer the same. Thanks in advance!!! Thanks,

Currently, I load the RData file then ls() and str(). But loading the file takes too long if the file is big. Most of the time, I only interested what the variables are in the the file and the attributes of the variables (like if it is a data.frame, matrix, what are the colnames/rownames, etc.) I'm wondering if there is any facility in R to help me avoid loading the whole file.

Ok, I did the following experiment dyn.load("/usr/local/lib/libf2c.so.2.0") dyn.load("try.so") .Fortran("try", 10.5) where try.so contains the following compiled subroutine subroutine try(x) double precision x write(*,*) x return end It worked just fine (at least here on my FreeBSD machine at home). So it seems that it will be

Martin Your revisions to my S--R compatability code suggest that tempfile() is in R after 0.49. I don't find that to be the case. It requires code from Friedrich Leisch which still has to be added as of 0.50 alpha3.

More to the point: I think, we could

I have been looking at the "eigen" function and have reintroduced the ability to compute (right) eigenvalues and vectors for non-symmetric matrices. I've also made "eigen" complex capable. The code is based on the eispack entry points RS, RG, CH, CG (which is what S appears to use too). The problem with both the S and R implementations is that they consume huge amounts

Here is a proposal: At present when you specify a color with an integer it is taken as an index into a fixed table of 8 colors. 1=red, 2=green, 3=blue, 4=cyan, 5=magenta, 6=yellow, 7=white, 8=black [At least this is the intention, there may be bugs in the implementation]. Since I am looking at this anyway (to see if I can see the bug that Martin and Kurt have mentioned) I thought I might

Dear R team I noticed a bug in the "medpolish" function in the "stats" package. When I run medpolish(x), with "x" the matrix in the attached .rda file, I get this rather cryptic error: "Error in if (converged) break : missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed In addition: Warning message: In sum(abs(z), na.rm = na.rm) : integer overflow - use

Jeez I dunno - it compiles perfectly and you guys get excited just because it doesn't work :-) I have to admit to being baffled about what happened (I'm SURE this was working not long ago), but here is a quick fix. The problem is in the function "GetCharInfo" in the file src/unix/PostScript.c. The fix is to change the statement if(nchar < 0) return 0; to if(nchar <

Just grabbed the R-0.63.tar.gz from CRAN. Again during the build make fails. bin/build-help did not have exec permissions. After that, it failed for missing *.pl files called from build-help. I just copied them from an R-devel I had. Then make docs worked. However, LibIndex was not built. I am on an hpux-pa1.1-hpux-10.20 using egcs: gcc version egcs-2.92.18 19981101 (gcc2 ss-980609 experimental)
