I am sorry that this IS an old topic. Yet another task I think the bug is somewhere in hidden in src/main/options.c .. ##-- The following does not work as it should in R (0.50-a1, but I think also earlier) tst <- function(x=pi, dig =3) {.Options$digits <- as.integer(dig); print(x);x} tst() tst(dig = 12) ##-- This should do the same; it works as expected in R & S : tst2

Whatever extensions are decided on for any of the R stuff it is important to realize that Windows (3.11) only lets you have one dot (.) and then only 3 characters. The base name should be only 8 characters long as well. Since I'm worrying about it a little these days I just want to put my 2 cents worth in on this topic. It is looking like a real pain to translate the current set of html files

Hi. Robert Gentleman's solution works. Thanks. This seems to be a documentation bug; I will submit a separate report to the bug list for completeness.

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.

Attached is an updated version of the FAQ, to be released right after 0.50 is out. Please have a look, and let me know where improvements are needed.

Dear help I have been attenpting to compile R0.49 on both of these unix machines and have had no compilation errors but core dumps at run time. The HP UX box start out by putting up a graphics window and then crashing with the following error message before giving the prompt R : Copyright 1997, Robert Gentleman and Ross Ihaka Version 0.49 Beta (April 23, 1997) R is free software and

A set of patches for R-0.50-a1 is now available as ftp://stat.auckland.ac.nz/pub/R/R-0.50-a1.patch1.gz The patches mainly fix problems reported since R-0.50-a1 but some older problems are also fixed. Here is the list of changes. Ross o Many subsetting and mutation problems with the new "expression" type have now been fixed. o When ask=T is set in par() the user is instructed

I must admit to being baffled by this.

Dear R-help, I think I have kinda isolated the problem I had to the following: i <- 0 while( {i <- i + 1} < 5) { if(i < 3) next print(i) } This seems to go into an infinite loop. After I break the execution, i has the value 1. At the R prompt, if I start from i <- 0 and keep typing {i <- i + 1} < 5, it eventually evaluate to TRUE. So why does the while loop not work?

The new code seems to have broken various things.
