In the source code perhaps? :-) You can find a pretty precise description in the article Robert and I did in JCGS. Actually its pretty simple. Functions have access to the variables which were in effect when the function was defined. f <-

locator(n=1) or (n=500) as S-plus ?
There's a non-compatibility between R and S-plus with the default argument of the locator() function. R has locator(n=1) S-plus has locator(n=500, type="n", noclick=F) S's default is ``better'' I think, insofar as it means in 99% of the cases ``user clicks <left> as many times as wanted and then clicks <right> to end'' Ross Ihaka and his grad

Gentleman and Ihaka , 2000 paper question
In their paper, "Lexical Scope and Statistical Computing", the authors ( Gentleman and Ihaka ) go to great length explaining why R's use of lexical scoping creates advantages when doing statistical computations. If anyone has or is familiar with this paper, could they provide the main program code for how the "newton" function would be called in their example on page 500

R-beta: image S vs. R compatibility
Hello! First of all I would like to thank very much Guido Masarotto for the latest Win32 version of R. I've installed it painlessly on WinNT 4 Workstation, and it is loading and running fast. The only problems I've had thus far are demos 6 to 8 ("recursion", "scoping", and "is.things"), which cause a memory protection fault. I've a question regarding the

cbind is not generic as claimed, omits labels where S has them (PR#239)
(1) ?cbind claims The generic functions `cbind' and `rbind' take a sequence of vector and/or matrix arguments and combine them as the columns or rows, respectively, of a matrix. Note: The method dispatching is not done via `UseMethod(..)', but by C-internal dispatching. Therefore, there's no need for, e.g., `rbind.default'. but my cbind.ts

Reading and writing to S-like databases
Hi, I asked this question 2 years ago, and would like to know if the answer has changed. In S-Plus, I build databases of many large objects. In any given analysis, I only need a few of those objects, but attach'ing the whole database is fine since objects are only read as needed. How can I do the same thing in R, without reading the entire database? One possibility is to treat

R, S, S-Plus, whence comes thy name?
I appeal to those entrusted with the keeping of the R flame, the S flame, and the S-Plus flame to relate a bit of history. How did S, S-Plus, and R get their names? Going from S to S-Plus appears clear, a commercial company purchased rights to S, developed a product that they wanted to indicate was related to S, but was more fully developed. This leaves me with only a rumor how S got its original
