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;

Many thanks to Andy Liaw for quickly reminding me of "ellipse" package in CRAN. It is apparently what I wanted. Not sure whether it will work in S-PLUS or not. But I will give it a try. Thank you.

Dear List, Does anyone know when will be available Peter Dalgaard's book: "Introductory Statistics with R" ?. According to Amazon: "This item will be published on August 15, 2002", but it continues unpublised. Thanks, Carlos Ortega. _______________________________________________________________ Yahoo!

Hi, Suppose that I have a list where each component is a list of two matrices. I also have a vector of weights. How can I collapse my list of lists into a single list of two matrices where each matrix in the result is the weighted sum of the corresponding matrices. I could use a loop but this is a nested calculation so I was hoping there is a more efficient way to do this. To help clarify,

Dear S-PLUS/R users: Do you know any default function or a user contributed function that can draw an ellipse with given axes and origin? Thanks for any help.

Hi R users, I am still a relatively new R user migrated from S+. I wonder in R how do you handle one difference between R and S+. S+ saves objects as different files in .Data directory while R saves all objects in a big file .RData. In S+, I can start two S+ sessions from the same directory and work simultaneously as long as new objects in the two sessions are not in the same names. This is

This is an inquiry for all those who have been working on external data base applications. I sent an inquiry (below) to snews about this sort of thing a couple of years ago and eventually decided that I would wait to see what external database developments occurred and then revisit the problem. I hope that foundations are now better. Suppose for the sake of concreteness you have a large

Hi Bert, Thanks for the suggestions. I tried lme with different control parameters, and also tried using "ML", instaed of "REML", but still got the same answers. Yes, I hope some gurus on this list could give me some hints. Thanks --- "Gunter, Bert" <bert_gunter at merck.com> wrote: > But they are close. This is almost certainly a > numeric issue --

I installed R (R-2.4.1-win32.exe) on a new computer with Windows Vista and a 64 bit operating system (hp dv9000 with intel core t7200). The base R runs fine, but I can not get any of the packages to load. From within R I choose install packages choose a site then a package. I tried installing 2 packages and get similar errors (see below), I just copied and pasted lines from R. Can anyone

Dear Mr. Cleland, SEM-ueser, R-User, ... there isn't s-plus or R (a GNU-free version of the programming language S) code for structural equation modelling. I always wondered why. I personally think the language S, with the implementations S+ and R, is a good-perhaps the best-environment for statistical analyses. Why? It is object orientated, logical, etc. For example: the code for least
