"[<-" in R 0.63 does not appear to strip attributes, whereas Splus and previous versions of R did. Paul _____ R 0.63: > data <- matrix(rnorm(300),100,3) > attr(data, "tframe") <- c(1981.50, 2006.25 , 4.00) > attributes(data) $dim [1] 100 3 $tframe [1] 1981.50 2006.25 4.00 > z <- data[10:90,] > attributes(z) $dim [1] 81 3 $tframe [1]

The document R-exts contains the following example of using mathematics in R documentation. \deqn{p(x) = {\lambda^x\ \frac{e^{-\lambda}}{x!}} {p(x) = lambda^x exp(-lambda)/x!} There is a syntax error in there, but that's not my point. The problem is that using "R CMD Rd2dvi" I find that putting the alternate forms of the equation on top of each other doesn't work.

People's valiant efforts to sort out CODA aside, the burning question remains: has anybody made any headway with restart()? or any other way (and there may well be better) of trapping `fatal' errors from calls within a function.

I am an economist who decided it's high time that I learned some Bayesian statistics. I am following An Introduction to Modern Bayesian Econometrics by T. Lancaster. The book recommends using BUGS, but I wonder if there are any alternatives which are free software and fully integrated to R (which I have been using for more than two years for numerical computations.) I would like to learn

I have written a function called mcsamp() that is a wrapper that runs mcmcsamp() and automatically monitors convergence and structures the inferences into vectors and arrays as appropriate. But I have run into a very little problem, which is that mcmcsamp() shortens the variable names. For example: > set.seed (1) > group <- rep (1:5,10) > a <- rnorm (5,-3,3) > y <-

I've been trying to keep track with lmer, and now I have a couple of questions with the latest version of Matrix (0.995-4). I fit 2 very similar models, and the results are severely rounded in one case and rounded not at all in the other. > y <- 1:10 > group <- rep (c(1,2), c(5,5)) > M1 <- lmer (y ~ 1 + (1 | group)) > coef(M1) $group (Intercept) 1 3.1 2

I have been running a Gibbs Sampler to estimate levels of efficiency in the Louisiana Shrimp Industry. I created a matrix (samp) where I stored the results of each iteration for 86 variables. I run 10,000 iterations. So, the matrix samp is 10,000 x 86. I want to use the gelman-rubin test to check for convergence. To do that, I need at least two chains. If I run second chain with different starting

Hi, people. I was a bit intrigued by the message quoted below. Indeed, if pt() is given a matrix, it returns a matrix. Should this feature be documented? ?pt speaks about "a vector of quantiles", and says nothing about the type of what it returns. The same might presumably apply to other distribution-related functions. ----- Forwarded message from Martyn Plummer <plummer at

Hi all, I have managed to get the r-scale usage algorithm to work, but I need to obtain the final results from this. As I understand it, this code is designed to generate a matrix after processing and store it somewhere????? Here is the code..... I get this part of the code, it all makes sense. ## if(nchar(Sys.getenv("LONG_TEST")) != 0) {R=1000} else {R=5} { data(customerSat)

Hi there, When installing R on linux 8.0, I got the following error message: rpm -i /mnt/cdrom/linux/8.x/R-1.6.2-1.i386.rpm error: /mnt/cdrom/linux/8.x/R-1.6.2-1.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: BAD, key ID 97d3544e error: /mnt/cdrom/linux/8.x/R-1.6.2-1.i386.rpm cannot be installed Any suggestions as what I did wrong? Thanks in advance. Wenyan [[alternate HTML version deleted]]

Hi all, Three months ago, I wrote to Martyn Plummer (to his Warwick email) and offered my help to maintain and modernize this [1] rather updated README, but received no response. Does anyone know how to reach him, or maybe I should contact CRAN directly? [1] https://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/redhat/README Regards, -- I?aki ?car

I have been checking my package coda with the current R-devel using "R CMD check". As usual, this has uncovered a large number of errors and inconsistencies in my documentation, for which I am very grateful. The only problem I have is with code/documentation mismatches when I have written a method for a generic function, e.g. * checking for code/documentation mismatches ... WARNING

Hi -- I'm trying to package R for inclusion on some upcoming Red Hat Powertools distribution. I have started with the 0.61 version packaged by Martyn Plummer <plummer at iarc.fr> (Thanks Martyn!) and have upgraded to 0.62-2. I have succeeded in running R demo's on i386-redhat-linux-gnu, and now I am also trying to get the alpha and sparc versions working. On sparc-redhat-linux,

R is included in Fedora Extras. You can skip downloading Extras and updating the packages on the CD by using: yum index | grep R and installing the half dozen or so individual packages that will be listed. The number of packages may be mildly annoying but if you install this way you will be notified of R updates along with all of your other security and application updates through the Red Hat

Hi, I have written boxplot commands of this form before, but I don''t quite understand why the function call is reporting a syntax error in this instance. All parameters passed to the function are strings. Thanks in advance. Payam > simplevar <- function(wframe,column1,column2) { + tframe <- get(wframe) + x1 <- which(names(wframe)==column1) + x2 <-
