similar to: integer functions {was Inconsistencies (PR#550)}

Dear all, I was playing around with some C-code that I dynamically linked to R and noticed the following inconsistency: > dat <- matrix(1,3,3) > is.double(dat) [1] TRUE > is.integer(dat) [1] FALSE > dat <- matrix(1:9,3,3) > is.double(dat) [1] FALSE > is.integer(dat) [1] TRUE How did I find out? I passed `dat' to a double * in the C-code and printed out the matrix

Dear Berwin, Simply stacking the problems and treating the resulting observations as independent will give you the correct coefficients, but incorrect coefficient variances and artificially zero covariances. The approach that I suggested originally -- testing a linear hypothesis using the coefficient estimates and covariances from the multivariate linear model -- seems simple enough. For

The problem with POSIXt is that you must consider timezones and daylight vs. standard time issues even if you don't want to. This violates modularity (viz. your routines becomes coupled to unrelated information) and leads to subtle errors where different routines are assuming different time zones. The problem is that the time, date, day of the week, month, etc. of a date depend on its

Dear all, I would like to suggest changing the pairs.formula command such that a command like pairs(GNP ~ . - Year - GNP.deflator, longley) would behave in a similar fashion as lm(GNP ~ . - Year - GNP.deflator, longley) i.e., make a pairwise scatterplot of GNP and all other variables in the (longley) dataframe except for Year and GNP.deflator. The above command, with the

Hi Martin, When I attended the LinuxWorld Expo in NYC back in January, I chatted with some folks at the AMD booth, as well as guys from Penguin Computing (where we bought our Opteron box). I was told that the Operton has this somewhat strange setup that the memory is controlled by one CPU. The net effect of this being that when both CPUs are running, one might only be running at around 90%

.... I have a 64-bit CentOS 5.6 VM running on a 64-bit FC14 host.

.... I have a CentOS 5.n VM running on a Fedora 14 server/host, installed using virt-manager, pretty plain vanilla. I use it to compile binaries to run under RHEL/CentOS 5.n OS. I occasionally notice that when the VM gets paged out by the server, it takes several minutes to get it back in :-/ (see below). On the host, logged in to a shell through a terminal window, this A.M.: [wam at Q6600,

G'day all, I guess it is still early enough in the year to wish everybody a happy and successful new year. I thought I should report that the installation of the CRAN package rstan regularly fails on my machine (a 64 bit linux box running Xubuntu 15.10). The reason being that I have the 32-bit and the 64-bit architecture of R installed, and my /tmp file is on a partition with about 1Gb

Hi, everyone When I was using cv.lm(DAAG) , I found there might be something wrong with it. The problem is that we can't use it to deal with a linear model with more than one predictor variable. But the usage documentation hasn't informed us about this. You can find it by excuting the following code: xx=matrix(rnorm(20*3),ncol=3) bb=c(1,2,0) yy=xx%*%bb+rnorm(20,0,10)

Has there been a recent change in the behavior of binary operators? In SparseM it was, until quite recently ok to do scalar multiplication but now, > A*4 Error in A * 4 : non-numeric argument to binary operator > 4*A Error in 4 * A : non-numeric argument to binary operator > A%*%A An object of class "matrix.csr" Slot "ra": [1] 1 1 1 Slot "ja": [1] 1 2 3

[I guess R-devel is more appropriate for this question:] Will CRAN maintainers accept binary packages (in addition to source) from the package maintainers? As an example, I develop and test randomForest on both Linux and WinNT, so I can always make the binary. This could make life a bit easier for BDR and DM. Are there any potential problems?
