Hi, I'm seeing something that may be a bug in R's standalone math library, which is packaged by Debian as r-mathlib. I reported it to the Debian BTS as http://bugs.debian.org/657573 I'm using Debian squeeze, and the code was tested with r-mathlib 2.11.1-6 (default on stable) and 2.14.1-1 (from testing/unstable). I summarize this report below. The following code with the R math

Dear r-help, Sleep-deprivation from having 2 youngsters under 2 around the house is fuzzing my brain, so please be gentle if the answer to this query is obvious! In the example below, I'm trying to use grid.rect to add grey rectangles to the panels of a lattice plot to indicate which months spawning occurred of a (very cute) native Tasmanian fish. The fish in the two lakes spawned at

hello all, I use the R standalone math library in my own C program, and the default R random number generator can be seeded with set_seed(const unsigned int, const unsigned int). How could I seed the RNG with an instance of .Random.seed ? I would need this or a similar workaround for debugging purposes. More precisely, I use the default R random number generator to sample from various

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

Dear all, I wish to generate a lattice boxplot which skips an empty cell in a design. I have trawled r-help, scruitinized xyplot(lattice) help page, and merrily reproduced examples of using skip from a couple of previous r-help queries and the example given in Pinheiro & Bates. But I must be missing something... Here's an example (running R 1.9.1 on Win2k): # generate some data df1

In looking over the bugs list, it seems to me that most of them are things we can no longer do anything about, because they are on old versions or broken systems or were features or .... There are now so many they obscure the bugs needing attention. I am about the remove the following. If anyone thinks they are still relevant, could you please send a follow-up to R-bugs with details under 1.2.0

Hello. I'm trying to use smbtar/smbclient (2.0.3) to copy an NTFS share on an NT Server, onto a Solaris 2.5 system. The NTFS partition is 10Gb. At the 2Gb mark, the tar stops. No errors, the file just stops. The process (smbtar) returns. Is this a problem with Solaris 2.5 ? I believe it is, and if I upgrade to 2.6, I can create larger tar files. However, does anyone know if

I've just noticed that --with-netatalk and --with-quotas are options to configure for samba. Is anyone using these options on Solaris 7, and what do they do and how well ? I'd really like to display a users quota as "disk size" and their remaining space as "disk free". Is --with-quotas the right way to go about this ? I also run netatalk. Do I need to use

I know I should probably RTFM for this question, but could someone tell me if R supports the idea of "viewing source" on any particular function you want to use? If I want to "view source" on the rpois() function, for example, can I do somethink like: source(rpois) To see how the function is implemented?

Hi: I am writing a C program which need a gamma random number generator. I download the source file of R and compile, make it myself. There is a "rgamma.c" function in the installing directory of R("/home/zhliu/Backup/R-2.0.1/src/nmath/rgamma.c"). My question is how to call this function in my own program which is in another directory. I can not copy this "rgamma.c"

Hi ! I have again problem with nmath standalone sources package. Following the suggestion of Reid, I did control that /usr/local, in which I copied the dir standalone, is listed in /etc/ld.so.conf. However, because of my big ignorance, I don't understand how I have to do the linkage to Rmath during the compilation of a source. What does it mean: "and link against -lRmath" in

Dear all, I'm trying to use the as a standalone package the nmath sources. In R-1.4.1/src/nmath/standalone, in linux operating system I made 'make shared' to obtain libRmath.so. then I copied the dir standalone, where there is libRmath.so in /usr/local. I tried to compile test.c with cc test.c but I obtain this error message /tmp/ccsTxu7U.o: In function `main':

Hello, I can't link a c code with Mathlib according to introduction of R manual "Writing R Extensions", page 60. It is written : "It is possible to build Mathlib, the R set of mathematical functions documented in 'Rmath.h?, as a standalone library 'libRmath? under Unix and Windows. (This includes the functions documented in Section 5.7 [Numerical analysis

Hi, In src/nmath/dgamma.c the comment at the top says * DESCRIPTION * * Computes the density of the gamma distribution, * * 1/s (x/s)^{a-1} exp(-x/s) * p(x;a,s) = ----------------------- * (a-1)! * * where `s' is the scale (= 1/lambda in other parametrizations) * and `a' is the shape parameter ( = alpha in

Hi: I followed the README in src/nmath/standalone/ to make the use the command "make shared" to make the libRmath.so file. I also add the directories containg libRmath.so to LD_LIBRARY_PATH by using command "export D_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$/home/zhliu/Backup/R-2.0.1/src/nmath/standalon e " However, when I try to run the following codes by the command

Dear People, I have been writing a simulation routine that is currently entirely written in c++. I've been using the R standalone math library to give me random number generation for this. However, I have had to set the seed myself, and I am using set_seed(time(NULL), clock) for every call to unif_rand(). However, this works really badly. The random numbers aren't uniform at all. Does

Hi ! 1) First question. Excuse me for trouble with the same question. I still have problems with the compilation of test.c in src/nmath/standalone. I did follow the instructions you gave me but I still receive this message [root at my standalone]# cc -o test test.c -L/usr/local -lRmath /usr/local/libRmath.so: undefined reference to `log' /usr/local/libRmath.so: undefined reference to
