generating normal numbers: GetRNGstate, PutRNGstate
Hi
I'd like to generate thousands of normal numbers from my C function using
the C API functions provided R. I have two options:
1. double norm_rand(); (page 61 of R extension 1.8.1)
2. double rnorm(double mu, double sigma); (page 58 of R extension 1.8.1)
If my understanding of R-exts is correct, then I only need to call
GetRNGstate once, and then call 1000 norm_rand, and then call

random number generation issues with r and compiled C code
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

GetRNGstate() crashes in Windows
Hi,
Has anyone managed to successfully call GetRNGstate() / PutRNGstate()
without crashing in a Windows environment (spec. XP)? I've compiled
successfully using both the latest Cygwin, latest Mingw, and the version
of Mingw suggested in "Building R for Windows" website, but when the
executable runs, it crashes; the functions themselves can run when I omit

trouble using R Mathlib as standalone
Dear People,
I am trying to use R's Math library as standalone, as documented in

shlib problems with Intel compiler
Hi,
I'm encountering trouble compiling caTools_1.17.1.tar.gz and e1071_1.6-4.tar.gz on a Linux system using the Intel compiler suite. 14 other packages I generally use installed without any trouble. I notice both of these trouble packages have a C++ component, so I wonder if that might be the issue. Below, there's information on my platform, compiler, and some diagnostic output showing

Problems Building R-2.3.1 on Alpha server ES40 running Tru64 V5.1B PK#5
R Listers,
One of the list contributors suggested I abandon attempts to build
R-1.9.1 and focus on building R-2.3.1. I believe the main set of
packages have been built properly (with some changes to the code) -
however, when building the Recommended packages, the build fails.
CODE CHANGES:
=============
1. My C compiler requires a ";" on line 589 of

random seed question
Greetings,
I am trying to write a C++ subroutine of my random number generator. Based
on tutorial in Writing R Extensions, one should call GetRNGstate() before
and PutRNGstate() after calling R's random variate generation routines. Now
suppose my function would generate n(n>1) numbers by a loop, do I need to
call these two functions at each iteration? This certainly increases
computation

Problem with R math library.
Hello.
I've been working on my OCaml-R binding, and I quite pleased to see that
it is functional, though far from being perfect or polished. You can
find the gitweb webpage and the interface documentation at
http://yziquel.homelinux.org/gitweb/?p=ocaml-r.git;a=tree
http://yziquel.homelinux.org/topos/api/ocaml-r/index.html
I'm having unexpected trouble with the math library, though.

simple C function segfaults
Hello,
I use the simplest of examples that somebody can think
of in order to generate a matrix of random numbers
from within C, calling appropriate R functions. The
concrete example is below:

#include <math.h>
#include <R.h>

shlib problems with Intel compiler
Hi Martyn,
Thanks for your insight, that seems pretty direct. Unfortunately, I did not compile this version of R (it's on a large supercomputer system and this version of R was installed by the admins). Using "R CMD config", I see the following relevant settings:
DYLIB_LD = icc -std=gnu99
DYLIB_LDFLAGS = -shared -openmp
LDFLAGS = -L/opt/compilers/intel/cce/9.1.039/lib

Calling C from Fortran
I would like to call C routines from Fortran as suggested in section 5.6 of
the "Writing R extensions" documentation.
I'm familiar with Fortran but not with C.
I understand the example provided in Fortran:
subroutine testit()
double precision normrnd, x
call rndstart()
x = normrnd()
call dblepr("X was", 5, x, 1)
call rndend()
end
but I don't understand the purpose

RNG stuck via Fortran call
Having not much success with my previous question I try to reformulate it:
I'm simulating a Markow chain in Fortran interfaced with R.
Each loop of my Fortran calls various functions of the R RNG through
the wrapper given below.
In a run of 100 iterations of the Markov kernel,
after 20 iterations, the RNG seems like frozen.
For example, the first call to the RNG in my loop is:

question about dll crashing R
I have ported some R code to C to make it faster.
I can perform .Call("foobar",....) once and it
works fine. Absolutely correct answer.
If I put a loop inside foobar and run the main code
routine more than 100 times, it crashes R.
Or if I call .Call("foobar"....) seperately more than
two tims it crashes R.
For the most part I am doing matirx multiplies using
