Hi, I am running the RODBC examples form the help guide. I am trying to UPDATE a table in an Access data base but I am having an error. library(RODBC) library(termstrc) path = getwd() setwd(getwd()) dbName = "data.mdb" pathdbname = paste(path,"/",dbName,sep="") accesChannel = odbcConnectAccess(pathdbname, uid = "", pwd = "")

Hi, I'm trying to use the package termstrc. However I cannot figure out how to invoke helper functions like create_cashflows_matrix & create_maturities_matrix. Even when I try to invoke those with the data supplied with the package (say, corpbonds), it throws error saying "Error in as.vector(x, mode) : invalid 'mode' argument". Can anybody provide some working example

Hi, I'm trying to build the termstrc 1.1 package from its source on R 2.7.2 on Windows XP. However instead of building the package it just zips the entire source into a .tar.gz file. This is the first time I'm trying to build an R package from source. I installed the R toolset for Windows and set RTools as well as Perl & MinGW directories in the path. Anybody tried this out? Any file

Hi, I'm trying to invoke the function bond_prices from termstrc package. Here is the code snippet: library(termstrc) data(eurobonds) b <- matrix(rep(c(0,0,0, 1),1),nrow=1,byrow=TRUE) group<-c("GERMANY") colnames(b) <- c("beta0","beta1","beta2","tau1") germaturities<-create_maturities_matrix(eurobonds$GERMANY)

Hi: I am using termstrc package and not sure if TODAY field (govbonds dataset) is today's date or the settlement date for the bonds. Although the name suggests that it should be today's date, but how the formula is setup indicates that it should be settlement date. Please help and thanks in advance.

Hi, I'm using the cubic splines from termstrc package. I invoked the splines_estim function with a group of 43 bonds. It computes 6 knot points and returns values for alpha1 to alpha7. My question is how to use these alpha1 to alpha7 in the equation of yield? For example, if I'm trying to find the yield at, say, 12.25 years, which falls between 3rd & 4th knot points what should the

Hola a todos: En la estimación de parametros de Nelson-Siegel vienen definidos 3 argumentos: rate, maturity y MidTau. Este último lo define como un vector el cual indica el término medio del vencimiento para maximizar el factor beta2.Si yo tengo un vector de maturity de 77 datos, la pregunta es:¿Qué tan importante es el argumento MidTau, y qué otra especificación tiene? no me queda muy claro cómo

Hi all. I started looking at Rcpp, which looks pretty great, actually. At the moment just trying to compile a module to get a feel how it all works without fully understanding how all the pieces fit together. Basically, i took the first example from Rcpp modules vignette: fun.cpp ======================== #include <Rcpp.h> #include <math.h> using namespace Rcpp; double

Hello Apologies for cross-posting, the discussion should (if) go to R-devel, but I also want to reach the rcpp-devel people. My C++ class FOO is a module available through Rcpp, and it works fine and is -- so far -- bug free. With trying to further develop my R package, I thought it was a good idea to interface my C++ workhorse FOO with an S4 class Foo. After some long and not always insightful

Hello, Could anybody offer any advice about implementing a Kohonen self organizing map for categorical data? Specifically I am wondering if there are any pre-existent packages that can deal with categorical data and/or how one would compare the input vector of categoricals with the self organizing map nodes.
