similar to: R CMD check does not recognize S4 functions inside other functions?

How can I define environments within a function so that they are visible to calls to a sub-function? I have defined an objective function, ProfileErr = function(params,...) which I would like to optimize using standard routines (optim, nlminb,....) but which contains auxiliary variables which need to be updated along with params. No optimization routine in R that I have found has facilities

Hi All, I am trying to code an R script which gives me the time varying parameters of the NIG and GH distributions. Further, becasue I think these these time varying parameters should be more responsive to more recent observations, I would like to include a weighted likelihood estimation proceedure where the observations have an exponentially decaying weighting rather than the equal weighting

Hi guys, I''m trying to make a drag''n''drop portal using sortable element. I would like to apply the "hoverclass" option only on the droppable zone instead of the column border. Any idea a about the solution? Thanks for any help, Sabri --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups

I have just upgraded from R 1.7.3 to R 1.9.0 and have found that the predict function no longer works for rpart: > predict(hmmm,sim3[1:10,]) Error in predict.rpart(hmmm, sim3[1:10, ]) : couldn't find function "pred.rpart" I have re-installed the rpart package to no avail. Any ideas? Giles Hooker

Hey guys, hope one of you can help me. I have the following code that works with Firefox but not within IE. The basic premise is that when using a POST to send to my page, IE doesn''t seem to send it and therefore doesn''t fire the database update. GET''s work fine in IE but due to the potential volume of text, a GET is not realistic. In Firefox, GETs and POSTs work as

Full_Name: Andrew Hooker Version: 2.3.1 OS: windows xp sp2 Submission from: (NULL) (83.253.8.162) Hi, I think there is a bug in the windows graph history procedure, here is what happens: 1. open R 2. 'library(lattice)' 3. 'xyplot(0~0)' 4. Turn on recording in the graphical window 5. Add plot to history 4. 'plot.new()' 5. 'xyplot(1~1)' Try to 'pageup' to

Hi I have some problems with setting permissions on my share. I think it has to do that I didn?t configure this If you use the winbind 'ad' backend on Unix domain members and you add a gidNumber attribute to the Domain Admins group in AD, you will break the mapping in idmap.ldb. Domain Admins is mapped as ID_TYPE_BOTH in idmap.ldb, this is to allow the group to own files in Sysvol on a

Hi, I am wondering if there is a way to change the value of the "record" option in a graphics device that is already open (and accepts this option). I don''t want to open a new device with, for example "dev.new(record=T)", but just want to change the settings of the current device. This can be done by pointing and clicking on the "history" tab of a

I''m trying to change over from Rails 1.1.6 to 1.2.1 and have discovered that either something is wrong with Prototype of else something has changed that I am not aware of and cannot find documentation on. (I just joined this group, so if this has already been cussed and discussed here or in another list then please point me in the right direction.) I am trying to use the

Hi, #make example data dat <- data.frame(matrix(rnorm(15),ncol=5)) colnames(dat) <- c("ab","cd","ef","gh","ij") If I want to get a subset of the data for the middle 3 columns, and I know the names of the start column and the end column, I can do this: mysub <- subset(dat,select=c(cd:gh)) If I wanted to do this just on the column names,

After many helpful suggestions from many including Brian Ripley, Peter Dalgaard, Martin Maechler, Douglas Bates, and Tristan Savatier--it is clearly time to upgrade my system from SPARC-10 Solaris 2.4. Rational choice of configuration should be based on intended application and perhaps the fact it is my pension, not my university, which now finances my research. My most demanding applications

below is a code to compute hessian matrix , which i need to generate 29 number of different matrices for example first element in x1 and x2 is use to generate let say matrix (M1) and second element in x1 and x2 give matrix (M2) upto  matrix (M29) corresponding to the total number of observations and b1 and b2 are constant.  can some one guide me or help to implement this please. I did not

Dear all, Over the last few weeks with the help of GH folks I've been exploring the options of Bugzilla migration. I believe finally we came to the viable solution which is detailed below. It turned out that GitHub has an internal project rehydration tool that could be used to populate the empty repo contents from the simple serialized format. There is a big advantage of this approach as

Hi Guys, I had a monthly time series's data of land temperature from 1980 to 2008. After plotting a scatter diagram, it seems that annually, there is a semi sinusoidal cycle. How do I run Fourier's series to the data so that I can fit model on it? I am really sorry for my question sound stupid, but I just don't know where to start. I am desperately looking for help from you guys.

I am currently attempting to split a long list of strings (let's call it "string.list") that is of the format: "1234567.z3.abcdef-gh.12" I have gotten it to: "1234567" "z3" "abcdef-gh" "12" by use of the strsplit function. This leaves me with each element of "string.list" having a split string of the above format. What

It seems like half the people on this list are writing a book on Ruby or Rails. For all the hints I''ve seen strewn across the list I have yet to see one that will focus on test-driven development for either Ruby or for Rails. If anyone is looking for a topic, please consider this. I''ve been trying to wrap my brain around the TDD process, but its way of thinking is

Dear list, I have following data set, which I want to plot the "Scale" variable on the x-axis and "Mean"´on the y-axis for each Ageclass and for each sex. The Mean value of each Ageclass for each sex would be connected by a line. Totally, there should be 6 lines, from which three present the Mean values of each Ageclass for respective sex. Are there any easy ways to do

I''m still reading other people''s code and going over the books. As I was doing this a question sprang up in my mind. Is it wise for total newbies to attempt test driven development from the start? Basically, if you''re a newbie like me, chances are your tests might even be broken themselves. Or will attempting to write tests be good practice for actual coding as

I''m not a paid developer, but I still feel guilty. I thought it might be entertaining to have a little "programmer confession." So let''s hear an answer to this simple question: What makes you guilty about your Rails development? Mine is a bad one: I don''t write tests. I understand that TDD makes sense, but I just don''t do it. I''ve
