I am a little confused about the relationship between library.dynam and dyn.load >From the documentation: library.dynam(chname, Load the specified file of compiled code if it has not been loaded already, or unloads it. Where chname is a character string naming a shared library to load. and dyn.load(x, local = TRUE, now = TRUE) Load or unload shared libraries, and test whether a C function

But isn't that a bit troublesome if there is a shared object to be loaded in the NAMESPACE file? If I

(1) I do read the posting guide (the fact that I missread o missunderstood something does not imply not reading) (2) I could change NAs to 0 (I know) but I have previously (older versions of R and SQL*Plus) used the same select with the "right" output (namely with 0s). (3) AFAIK "strange" is not a negative remark and does not seem to me at the very least but that is always a

Please do as we ask (repeatedly) and study the help page before posting. 'family' is a separate argument, not part of loess.control, as the help page correctly documents. If you use cars.lo2 <- loess(dist ~ speed, cars, family = "symmetric", control = loess.control(surface = "direct", iterations = 20)) cars.lo2$pars$iterations it prints *20*, as it is

I used the packaged "MinGW-2.0.0-3.exe" exactly as specified on http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/Rtools/ - in fact I used these recommendations throughout. According to the release notes MinGW version 2.0.0 contains the following list of packages: GCC-3.2-core-20020817-1 binutils-2.13-20020903-1 mingw-runtime-2.2 w32api-2.0 gdb-5.1.1-1 make-3.79.1-20010722 (binary renamed as mingw32-make)

R 1.4.0 ?stars has scale: logical flag: if `TRUE', the columns of the data matrix are scaled independently so that the maximum value in each column is 1 and the minimum is 0. If `FALSE', the presumption is that the data have been scaled by some other algorithm to the range [0,1]. but the code has if (scale) { x <- sweep(x, 2,

Is there a way to query a package to see what dynamic shared libraries are loaded with it? The reason I ask is because during development, I want to unload libraries so that they can be reloaded without restarting R. I want to make it automatic so that you can just pass in the name of the package, and it will unload all the relevant shared libraries. Typically, the name of the shared library is

... Moved from R-help ... Thank you for your suggestion, Professor Ripley. Postscript does seem like the way to go for printing line widths correctly in Windows. On Linux I am using a simple dev.print() wrapper (as suggested), with a pipe to lpr. However, I had an extremely difficult time getting postscript printing under windows. ?postscript recommends the RedMon suite of tools for printing

Well, "integer" is also a storage.mode in R. It is not immediately clear which meaning the help page uses. I guess some extra elaboration would be helpful.

Dear Prof. Ripley, thks for your response and no, I have not looked at 2.0.0 beta version; blame on me, but I could not spare time by now for doing so; instead I looked at: http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/fullrefman.pdf as well as on my local one in: 'rw1091/doc/manual/refman.pdf'. Hopefully this clarified things; thks for taking your time and patience. Best, Bernhard >

What compiler system is this? And what settings were used? We are not seeing such a problem on Solaris 10 (neither Sparc nor x86_64) with the Sun Studio 11 compilers they shipped with (a month or two ago). Note that the error message is not to do with subject line: it is launching R and /export/home/gordonp/Desktop/R-alpha/lib/libRlapack.so that has the problem. I don't think that

What library(help=foo) produces is not HTML and has no hyperlinks, so why do you want it displayed in a browser? If you do want text displayed in a browser, you can set options("pager") to point to your browser (or a wrapper). It is no different from other library() help modes, like library() with no argument, nor from help(package="foo"). Indeed, the help for help says

But %S is not valid in C99 or POSIX, even if it is a variant in some systems. I am working on a more careful checker right now, but there will be limits to what we can catch: this was already a pretty rare example.
