similar to: R 2.9.2 is released

I've rolled up R-2.6.0.tar.gz a short while ago. This is a development release which contains a number of new features. In particular, the handling of data with a large number of identical strings should be more memory-efficient. Also, a number of mostly minor bugs have been fixed. See the full list of changes below. You can get it (later today) from

Given that a number of us are housebound, it might be a good time to try to improve the approximation. It's not an area where I have much expertise, but in looking at the qbeta.c code I see a lot of root-finding, where I do have some background. However, I'm very reluctant to work alone on this, and will ask interested others to email off-list. If there are others, I'll report back.

Hi all, I've inherited in-house development package, which was developed on R v 2.6.1. I'm trying upgrade to R v 2.9.1. I have installed R from source, with a shared library and tcktk support. When installing myPkg, I use the following command: >R CMD INSTALL myPkg * Installing to library ‘/usr/local/lib/R/library’ * Installing *source* package ‘myPkg’ ... ** R ** inst ** preparing

Dear list, I've a package, myPkg, which was developed on R v 2.6.1. I have installed R v2.9.2 from source, with a shared library and tcktk support. The package, myPkg, depends on RSPerl, and imports it in its NAMESPACE. I've downloaded and installed RSPerl using command: >R CMD INSTALL -c --configure-args="--with-modules='IO \ Fcntl Socket Storable XML::Parser::Expat

nchar(with(list(2),ls())) gives an internal error. This is of course a peculiar call (no names in the list), but the error is not caught cleanly. It is not clear from the documentation whether with(list(2)...) is allowable; if it is not, it should presumably give an error. If it is, then ls shouldn't have problems with the resulting environment. > qq <- with(list(2),ls())

Hi everyone! I think I stumbled over a bug in the latest R 2.9.2 patched for OS X: > R version 2.9.2 Patched (2009-09-24 r49861) > i386-apple-darwin9.8.0 When I try to sort latin1-encoded character vectors, R sometimes crashes with a segmentation fault. I'm running OS X 10.5.8 and have observed this behaviour both with the i386 and x86_64 builds, in the R.app GUI as well as on

Can anyone help? I am trying to install R-0.62.2 on a Sun with OS 5.6 (Solaris 2.6), and gcc/f77. Unfortunatley the simple commands ./configure --prefix=/opt/R make did not work, complaining when building help/docs. It claims to have problems perl (which has worked fine so far) but in practice it is not only a documentation problem: if I force "make install" and run R, then it

Hi It seems that selecting an element of a factor will copy its levels (Ubuntu 13.04, R 3.0.2). Below is the output of a script that creates a factor with 10000 elements and then calls as.list() on it. The new object seems to use more than 700 MB, and inspection of the levels of the individual elements of the list suggest that they are distinct objects. Perhaps some performance gain could

I've rolled up R-2.10.0.tar.gz some hours ago. This is a development release which contains a number of new features, notably a brand new HTML based dynamic help system.

Very interesting: > .Internal(inspect(k[i])) @10a4bc000 14 REALSXP g0c7 [ATT] (len=20000, tl=0) 1,2,3,4,1,...

This is also strange: qbeta <- function (p, shape1, shape2, ncp = 0, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE) { if (missing(ncp)) .Call(C_qbeta, p, shape1, shape2, lower.tail, log.p) else .Call(C_qnbeta, p, shape1, shape2, ncp, lower.tail, log.p) } Since the default value is 0 for non-centrality, it seems like the logic above is wrong. When ncp=0, C_qnbeta would be called
