No, blas/veclib is tested, so aprt this extreme case you should report some other more commonly used cases in which something fails on OS X. This will help us to work it out. As said, I'll try some tests without using veclib and let you know. I've fowarded this mail to r-devel, which seems to be the right place, so for future msg on the subject please use r-devel. stefano On

Dear R-Help List, I'm trying to implement Firth's (1993) bias correction for log-linear models. Firth (1993) states that such a correction can be implemented by supplementing the data with a function of h_i, the diagonals from the hat matrix, but doesn't provide further details. I can see that for a saturated log-linear model, h_i=1 for all i, hence one just adds 1/2 to each count,

Full_Name: David Firth Version: 1.8.0 OS: Mac OS 10.2.8 Submission from: (NULL) (80.177.12.48) In .Rd files, we use \url{stuff} to refer to a URL on the web. Just as the documentation says. Perhaps this isn't a bug, then, but certainly it's a trap for the unwary. If the construction \link{url{something}} appears in a .Rd file, then Rdconv --type=html ... gets stuck and appears

This concerns behaviour which has been noted previously, for example see http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/05/03/0844.html http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/03b/6873.html and especially the thread http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/04/08/3025.html I find that it affects both my Linux and Mac OS X setups. It is a feature which has caused some (at least John Fox in the

Hi, Having searched google '[R] aov effect size' without any results I wonder if I not completely miss something. Is there any R function that calculates the effect size of an AOV's main effect or interaction effect? It should be related to the F's and the degree of freedom of the error, but the multitude in numbers in aov() baffle me a bit. Thanks, ---david

Hi, from example(capitalize) of the Hmisc package (v 0.8.3) you get: > capitalize(c("Hello", "bob", "daN")) [1] "Hello" "Bob" "daN" Is that "daN" correct? If so, then this behavior that only *all lowercase strings*, which the code indicates, will be capitalized is not documented. > Hmisc::capitalize function

Hi All, When I tried to do logistic regression (with high maximum number of iterations) I got the following warning message Warning message: fitted probabilities numerically 0 or 1 occurred in: (if (is.empty.model(mt)) glm.fit.null else glm.fit)(x = X, y = Y, As I checked from the Archive R-Help mails, it seems that this happens when the dataset exhibits complete separation. However, p-values

I propose the following enhancements and changes to plot.lm(), the most important of which is the addition of a Residuals vs Leverage plot. (1) A residual versus leverage plot has been added, available by specifying which = 5, and not included as one of the default plots. Contours of Cook's distance are included, by default at values of 0.5 and 1.0. The labeled points, if any, are those

This bug is not quite fixed - the example from my original report now = works using R-2.2.1, but plot(Uniform, 6) does not. The bug is due to if (show[6]) { ymx <- max(cook, na.rm =3D TRUE) * 1.025 g <- hatval/(1 - hatval) # Potential division by zero here # plot(g, cook, xlim =3D c(0, max(g)), ylim =3D c(0, ymx),=20 main =3D main, xlab =3D

Is the matrix exponential available in some package? The cannonical reference is "Nineteen dubious ways to take the exponential of a matrix". (Love that title) Terry T.

Is there a straightforward way to convert character information from decimal representation to the octal one used by R? I'd like something like a function ascii(number,base=10), such that > ascii(91) [1] "\133" I can easily do the mapping from 91 to 133, but what is a good way to operate on 133 to deliver "\133"? Would a lookup table be a better solution? David

I am making my first attempts at using some Fortran code with R, and so far it's going OK. To print from my Fortran programs, it seems I need subroutines dblepr, realpr and intpr. From the excellent "Writing R Extensions" document: "Three subroutines are provided to ease the output of information from FORTRAN code. subroutine dblepr(label, nchar, data, ndata)

Hi, I have a data set with a continuous predictor X, a factor A and a continuous dependent variable Y. I am trying to build a linear model of the form: Y = (b0 + b1*X1)*B(A) where B(A) is a constant for each level of the factor A. I am not quite sure how to formulate the appropriate model formula. If I write: Y ~ ( 1 + X)/A , I get estimates for as many constants and slopes as the number of

I am having a little problem in relation to sending output to the R Console window, when a function is called by pushing a button in a Tk window. Actually there seem to be two components to the problem: -- the R prompt does not re-appear until <return> is pressed -- text output to the R Console window *disappears* after <return> is pressed The following, in R 1.1.1 under

I suppose this could be described as a feature (it seems to be similar in S-Plus), but it looks to me more like a bug. Why can't the assignment below to a row of "emptyframe" (or "anotherframe") be made? This with R --vanilla (version info below).

[PLEASE REPLY _OFF_ THE LIST, i.e. DON'T CC to r-help at ...] Hi, I don't see this sort of thing very often on the mailing lists, so list moderators and others should feel free to tell me if it breaches list etiquette and/or delete my post if necessary. But I can't see what harm it could do... I am just wondering approximately how many people use / have used some of the R stuff

How about allowing underscore? (I believe WRE is silent on this, and I have not tried submitting a package with underscore in the title.) As I pointed out in my OP, _optim()_ works. And we have the advantage that we can distinguish package from function. The purpose of consistent editing is surely to provide the affordances that save us from needing extra documentation, as per Donald Norman's
