Hi, I use a mboost model to predict my dependent variable on new data.

In order to

Some time ago I came across the function object.size() to estimate the size of an R object. I don't know if the behavior of the function is intended to be quite "user unfriendly" as it is right now or if just nobody was thinking/caring about it. I have two suggestions to improve it: - Why is it named object.size() and not just size()? The latter would be far more intuitive and

Both, in the manuals for par() and points() I could not find a note on the default value of "pch". I think it would be rather helpful to add a note that the default is 1 (in both manuals). This would, for example, help users that want to draw a legend. And yes, I know that one can obtain the default by inspecting par() but I think for many users (especially beginneRs) this is not

Hi, anyone knows about any functions in R can get multidimensional integration not over a multidimensional rectangle (not adapt). For example, I tried the following function f(x,n)=x^n/n! phi.fun<-function(x,n) { if (n==1) { x }else{ integrate(phi.fun, lower=0, upper=x, n=n-1)$value } } I could get f(4,2)=4^2/2!=8, but failed in f(4,3)=4^3/3!
