Dear all, I think I must be going crazy.... If I do > mean(rpois(1000000, 14)) I get: [1] 13.50420 and again: > mean(rpois(1000000, 14)) [1] 13.49896 > mean(rpois(1000000, 14)) [1] 13.50161 > mean(rpois(1000000, 15)) [1] 14.49250 > mean(rpois(1000000, 15)) [1] 14.49897 > mean(rpois(1000000, 14.5)) [1] 13.99689 > mean(rpois(1000000, 14.5)) [1] 13.9963 This was on a platform

Full_Name: Kjetil Kjernsmo Version: Version 1.0.0 OS: osf1 Submission from: (NULL) (129.240.28.227) Dear all, I have come across another really strange bug in rpois. If I do > rpois(1, 1000000 * rpois(1, 10000)) sometimes it hangs, and hangs... On my XP1000 alphaev6 workstation, it seems to happen more frequently than on other machines. I started a session on an older computer, and from

Full_Name: Kjetil Kjernsmo Version: 0.65.1 OS: Digital UNIX 4.0 Submission from: (NULL) (129.240.28.172) I'm experiencing problems with rpois. Occasionally, it draws a very high number. Yeah, I know, this is statistics, things like that does happen, but this really strange because a poisson distribution with a parameter of 3 shouldn't see the number 1932 very often, but the same,

Greetings. I'm trying to install R-0.90.1 on our digital 4.0F servers (alphaev6 arch). Using either the digital cc and f77, or gcc 2.95.2 and g77, R compiles, but on trying to execute it I get: 11819:./bin/R.X11: /sbin/loader: Fatal Error: cannot map xxxxxxx I'm used to 'cannot map', but always with a shared library name, not 'xxxxxxx'. Has anyone else run into this

Dear all, Uwe e-mailed me yesterday about the problems some time ago. I had hoped someone would have a look at our computers, but due to some unfortunate circumstances, it hasn't happened. However, it seems unlikely that it is connected to a specific piece of hardware. It could be an architecture-dependent problem though. I also had a word with those who did the installation of R, and they

Hi, Trying to compile rsync 2.5.0 for RedHat linux 7.1 alpha but I get compile errors. :-( Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! # uname -a Linux myhost 2.4.9-12 #1 Tue Oct 30 18:12:52 EST 2001 alpha unknown # cat /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Linux release 7.1 (Seawolf) # ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/rsync-2.5.0 configure: Configuring rsync 2.5.0 checking build system type...

Dear all, I'm a bit confused about the output from functions that generates random values, e.g. rpois. I'm using 0.65.1 on Digital UNIX alphaev6. If I say > rpois(10,5) output is not unexpectedly: [1] 4 6 5 7 6 5 2 2 5 3 but I figured that if I go: > rpois(10,1:10) I would get a 10x10 matrix as output, with random values for each of the vector elements in the row vectors, but

Dear all, I'm making a system to create a star-chart, and I have encountered one of the intuitive and clearly thoughtful conventions that are so common in astronomy :-J... Well, the point being, I have to reverse the x-axis. I figured, I might just set xlim=rev(range(x)). Do e.g. > x <- 0:5 > y <- (0:5)^3 > plot(x, y) > plot(x, y, xlim=rev(range(x))) The problem is that here

Dear all, Me and the Garbage Collector doesn't understand each other... I'm on R-1.0.1 (I have requested an upgrade to the right local people), an osf1 system with an alphaev6 CPU. I have fair amounts of memory to use, but it seems to be used up pretty fast nevertheless. I'm now trying to see what the garbage collector does, I have inserted a gc(v=T) call at a spot in my code. I
