Hello, everybody. I recognize I'm asking you to deal with a not-very-important problem. But its important to me :) I've noticed a little inconsistency in the print.function() output. I traced the matter to deparse.c, for which I attach a patch that addresses 3 separate things. There's one important thing that I'm willing to stand behind and 2 litter things that I think would be

Hello all, Can someone tell me why the following mixture of two log-normal distributions does not get truncated? What puzzles me is that the function works almost always, but for certain combinations (like the one below), it does not. # R code example library(distr) mix<-UnivarMixingDistribution(Lnorm(3.2,0.5),Lnorm(5.4,0.6),mixCoeff=c(0.3,0.7))

Several of R's p/d/q/r (probability/density/quantile/random.number) functions have argument names different from the ones S(-plus) uses [e.g., pf(.), rbinom(.)]. Does everyone agree that we want to become compatible here? Any volunteer for changing this in R? If you do, please give us/me a not, and please get a current snapshot of the R development version from

Hello, this is kind of a rejoinder to our posting to r-devel "request for comments --- package "distr" --- S4 Classes for Distributions" dating from 01-31-04/ 05:11:50 EST./ To start, we want to thank the contributors of comments and suggestions, which have been quite helpful to us. Also, we want to apologize for being somewhat lengthy in our replies; we hope you could cope

We would like to announce the availability on CRAN of a new package distr . It is to provide a conceptual treatment of random variables (r.v.'s) by means of S4--classes. A virtual mother class "Distribution" is introduced. All distributions of the "base" package are implemented as subclasses of either "AbscontDistribution" or "DiscreteDistribution".
