Version 1.0-0 of fechner has been released to CRAN. Fechnerian scaling of discrete object (or stimulus) sets provides a theoretical framework for deriving, so-called Fechnerian, distances among objects representing subjective dissimilarities. A Fechnerian metric on a set of stimuli is constructed from the probabilities with which the objects are discriminated from each other by a

Hello, If an ordinary user runs: -- snip -- cat > starv.c <<EOF main(){ char *point; while(1) { point = ( char * ) malloc(10000); }} EOF cc starv.c while true do ./a.out & done -- snip -- This will fast starv the operating system (FreeBSD 6.2). I have tried to limit the number of processes and the amount of memmory consumed (in login.conf). There is also a file /etc/malloc.conf

This email isn't asking for assistance, but I thought R-help readers would find it interesting. This week we offered a half-day introduction to R for researchers at Augsburg University. The response was astonishing. Although Augsburg has no medical faculty and no engineers, there was far too much demand, with interest from every faculty (barring theology, "for one small

A while ago I compiled R 1.7.0 for AIX (with the above compiler - I'll call it xlc) and I was surprised that it went quite smoothly. Unfortunately with R 1.8.0 it's not as easy, but I succeeded at least partially. Static R works fine (after some tweaking), but --enable-R-shlib fails resp. produces a buggy R. Following are the problems I encountered (in a warning-to-fatal-error

Hi, i'm using Perl to control R under Windows via the Win32::OLE module and R's (D)COM server. This works fine, if i send commands and/or simple data structures to R. I am also able to get matrix-shaped return values into my Perl program, like this # snip ---------------------------------------------------- my $R = Win32::OLE->new('StatConnectorSrv.StatConnector');

R has spread far and wide with great success. It is not only used extensively in universities, but also apparently in governmental organisations and in industry. As the recent discussion of R's Pros and Cons shows, there are many reasons for this. It would be interesting to know just how widely R is used, where it is used most (and where least or not at all). Does anyone have a

In Mac OS X native version: The R shell wrapper (bin/R) overrides default library search path with DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH and adds (among others) /usr/X11R6/lib. This causes problems when modules need (directly or indirectly) libraries from Apple's frameworks which are masked by X11. Examples for such packages are SJava and RGL. SJava needs JavaVM which in turn loads OpenGL framework. RGL

Hello, I''m seeing problems with Xen and IRQ-sharing PCI cards which are passed through to a Xen DomU. As I''m not sure whether this is a problem with Xen or with the Debian Xen Kernel (2.6.26-13 from lenny) I''m using, I''d like to ask here before posting a bug. Reproducing the problem goes as follows: 1. Put a PCI card in the machine and make sure it shares

Hello, I can't find a package which calculates Kendall's tau-c. There is the package Kendall, but it only calcuates Kendall's tau-b. Here is the example from ttp://www2.chass.ncsu.edu/garson/pa765/assocordinal.htm. cityriots <- data.frame(citysize=c(1,1,2,2,3,3), riotsize=c(1,2,1,2,1,2), weight=c(4,2,2,3,0,4)) cityriots <- data.frame(lapply(cityriots,function(x)

I need to implement some external callbacks to R and I'm not happy with the current REPL, since it prevents any general solution. Are there plans to improve the current REPL anytime soon? The current approach has some deficiencies you are surely aware of (only one input (=external event loop), the loop is blocked while waiting for input in R_ReadConsole, ...). But the major problem is

I encountered several strange issues when linking to R.dll on Windows and I wonder if anyone of the Windows savvy-folks here had seen some of the issues before and have some explanation. My Rserve links to R dynamic library. That works perfectly on unix boxes and worked fairly well with older MinGW and older R (<=1.7.1). What I do in fact is that I specify -L$(R_HOME)/bin -lR when linking.

Hi I've got a cheap card from x100p.com for my pots line. I haven't found a definate answer if it is possible to get danish(DTMF without signaling before it). I have had a look at bug #9 but that is written longtime ago. I am running zaptel 1.4.7 and asterisk 1.4.14 BRIstuffed 0.4.0-test4 both from the xorcom debian packages. I believe they should contain some kind functionality for DTMF

Florian, I read already here and there that you shall not use shared interrupts in different PV DomUs, although I never found a written statement. But behaviour is exactly as you described, thus I took care that cards that share an IRQ are in the same DomU/Dom0. I also selected my motherboards accordingly. When I lately discussed lately with someone about MSI, I had the hope this could help,

After the recent discussion about future direction of the Mac OS X port, I was toying with the idea to make R a proper Mac OS X framework. There are several advantages: OS X locates frameworks automatically, therefore any program wishing to link against R has only to specify "-framework R" at link time. Furthermore versioning is supported, i.e. if a program is linked against R 1.7.1

Dear Sirs, This must have been asked before but I don't find and FAQ around dealing with the issue. We are building small devices that connects to Internet (www.ipio.nu). The next generation of this we want to base on AVR32 and run a small slimmed version of Linux. We have som program on this device that we want to connect to servers out on Internet. SSL seems to be "quite heavy"

Hello Tal, You asked *When is it helpful to use interactive plots? Either for data exploration (for ourselves) and data presentation (for a "client")?* My answer: It's helpful for checking data quality, for exploration with and without "clients", for checking results, and for data presenting. Notes: (1) It's difficult to explain interactive data visualization in

Dear Sirs, while > regexpr('(.{1,2})\\1', 'foo') [1] 2 attr(,"match.length") [1] 2 attr(,"useBytes") [1] TRUE yields the correct match, an incremented upper bound in > regexpr('(.{1,3})\\1', 'foo') [1] -1 attr(,"match.length") [1] -1 attr(,"useBytes") [1] TRUE incorrectly yields no match. R versions tested: 2.11.1

Dear all, The new package OutliersO3 is now available on CRAN: <https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/OutliersO3/index.html>. The aim is to graphically compare results of outlier analyses for all possible combinations of variables in a dataset. Various kinds of O3 (Overview of Outliers) plots can be drawn to show which cases are classified as outliers for which combinations of

Dear all, A revised version of OutliersO3 is available on CRAN: <https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/OutliersO3/index.html <https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/OutliersO3/index.html>>. The package has been restructured. The default is now that the tolerance level is set individually for each of the (six) outlier methods included. Plots have been added, as have outlier
