I'm looking for some help in getting R to compile on Sunos. We run a collection of Sunos and Solaris machines in the department here. I got to compile on Solaris 2.5.1 using gcc 2.7.2.2. On my Sunos 4.1.3 (and I've tried it on Sunos 4.1.4 as well) machines, it crashes during the compile. I'm using gcc 2.8.1 on there. It gets to this point: gcc -g -O2 -I../include

Hello, I have some C code that I'm interfacing to R using the .C calling interface. Currently the C code uses the rand() function from the GNU C library to generate random numbers. Since I need the random numbers in a range from 0 to a (where a is an integer) I use the RAND_MAX macro as (int)(rand() * (float)(*nobs-1) / (RAND_MAX+1.0)) (taken from the rand() manpage) However, since I have

Hi R-Developers, I had a question about the random number generator used in the R StandAlone Math Library. The stand-alone library depends on the unif_rand() function for most simulated values, and this function is provided in the sunif.c file in the relevant directory. At present, this program implements the "Marsaglia-Multicarry" algorithm, which is described throughout the R

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

Hi, Our department has detected a bug in the implementation of the Kinderman-Ramage generator for normal random variates in version 1.7.0, which can be seen from the below R session. (Consecutive calls for chisq.test(...) always gives p-values very close to 0.) We have already encountered this bug in version 1.6.2 The error is in file R-1.7.0/src/nmath/snorm.c Here is a patch for this file to

Hi again ! Thanks for the info on updating the config.site file which I have done. I have also added -lm in the Makeconf manually because this is needed explicitly for DEC cc. However, there are still a few problems when linking some of the files as you can see from the enclosed log.

Dear People, I am trying to use R's Math library as standalone, as documented in /src/nmath/standalone. I am using C++ in Debian testing, and the versions are as follows: ii g++-3.0 3.0.3-1 The GNU C++ compiler. ii r-mathlib 1.4.0-1 `GNU S' - Standalone R math library I have a file (rand.cc) as follows. I don't think that lattice.hh or mh.hh are very

It appears the Makefile.win in src/nmath/standalone might need some modification since cd src/nmath/gnuwin32 make -f Makefile.win make -f Makefile.win test fails. However if I remove libRmath.a from line 15 OR modify lines 67/68 replacing Rmath.a with libRmath.a then make -f Makefile.win test goes as expected. _________________________________________________________________

2.5.6pre1 bombs on Sunos4 gcc with these errors popt/popthelp.c: In function `singleOptionDefaultValue': popt/popthelp.c:137: invalid operands to binary + popt/popthelp.c:141: invalid operands to binary + popt/popthelp.c:145: invalid operands to binary + popt/popthelp.c:149: invalid operands to binary + because it's depending on sprintf to return the number of bytes

Dear R-users: Recently I found my simulation run into an apparently infinite loop. After a few days of tracing and chasing, I believe it is caused by the built-in unif_rand() and exp_rand() functions: unif_rand() can produce a value of 0 which causes the following part of exp_rand() running into an infinity loop u = unif_rand(); for (;;) { u += u; if (u > 1.0) break;

Hi, Just downloaded the R-0.62.4 of R and tried to install it. With the standard procedure : ./configure make At the end of the compilation I got the following message : ld: ../lib/libunix.a(system.o): main: multiply defined fort: Severe: Failed while trying to link. *** Exit 1 Stop. *** Exit 1 Stop. *** Exit 1 Stop. *** Exit 1 Stop.

I found that inet_ntop.c was depending on the return value of sprintf to return an int, but on SunOS4 it returns a char *. Snprintf is preferred anyway, so here's a patch to change the calls to use snprintf. Applies cleanly to the current CVS, and it was the only patch I need to apply to get 2.9p1 to build on SunOS4.1.4. On the other hand, I can't see any where inet_ntop is called, and

Hi, I cannot find the function kurtosis. Is it sth additional I am meant to download? I use the MacOS X version of R. Many thanks Samira

I have two questions about using a user-defined random number generator (RNG) with the standalone Rmath library. The default RNG with the standalone Rmath library is the Marsaglia-multicarry generator, which has poor properties. The "R Installation and Administration" manual, in the section "The standalone Rmath library", states that: ``` A little care is needed to use the
