similar to: R-beta: New r-base package for Debian-2.0

This may have been announced before but there are now both Debian GNU/Linux and RedHat Linux packages for R-0.61 on the CRAN archive sites. The master site for CRAN is http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/R/ That site provide a list of available mirror sites. Within the CRAN archive sites the pre-compiled packages for Linux are located in the bin/i386-linux directory. Under RedHat you can install

As described below, external network connections to the campus of the University of Wisconsin - Madison will be either inaccessible or slow from 20:00 CST 2000/01/03 until 01:00 CST 2000/01/04. CST is our local time zone: Central Standard Time in North America. These local times correspond to 04:00 - 07:00 GMT Tuesday 2000/01/04. This planned outage will affect the r-project.org, omegahat.org,

While writing his '98 Interface paper Ross Ihaka was asking about the history of S so he could relate it to the history of R. I was looking at the Statistics and Information Analysis Division's web page at Bell Labs and went to their technical reports section http://cm.bell-labs.com/stat/doc/ Sure enough, there is a tech report by Rick Becker on "A Brief History of S".

I did that. In fact the default uses .libPaths()[1], which I have set to "P:/stat/yandell/public/statgen/R" The package installs fine. However, the HTML search is not done properly. Again, the break occurred after installation of the package, when make.search.html() was invoked. Brian On Thu, 11 Mar 2004, Douglas Bates wrote: > Brian Yandell <byandell@wisc.edu> writes: >

So this is on Windows, then? This is documented somewhere (don't remember): If the package is not located under $R_HOME/library, then the html help will not be able to find it. Don't think there's a known work-around. Cheers, Andy > From: byandell@wisc.edu > > I did that. In fact the default uses .libPaths()[1], which I > have set to >

I am the maintainer of one of the CRAN mirrors in the U.S., cran.us.r-project.org. It appears that this site has been inaccessible since Friday. This has me puzzled because I can connect to the same machine through ssh and I can see that the http daemon (apache) is running. In fact I can make an http connection from this machine to this machine and from other machines on any of our subnets to

I am trying to show some techniques to my graduate regression class. The textbook mentioned using bootstrap samples of regression coefficients for assessing variability. I decided to show them reasonably effective ways of doing the resampling. The following is a function I wrote to create bootstrap samples of coefficients from a fitted linear regression model. bsCoefSample <- ##

Hi, df <- read.table("data.txt", header=T); library(nls); fm <- nls(y ~ a*(x+d)^(-b), df, start=list(a=max(df->y,na.rm=T)/2,b=1,d=0)); I was using the following routine which was giving Singular Gradient, Error in numericDeriv(form[[3]], names(ind), env) : Missing value or an Infinity produced when evaluating the model errors.

Dear Dr. Bates I replied to your email before but apparently it didn't make it so I am replying again. I would really appreciate if you could send me an example on how you suggest to build a cell means model for fixed effects using the NLME library. I am not sure whether you suggest to create a separate factor for each unique combination of levels of a factor or whether you suggest to

I am embarrassed to have to ask this but can anyone tell me of a Tukey multiple comparisons procedure available for R? I have looked through the search page, through the FAQ, and in the index of V&R (1999), and I still can't find such a thing. I see there is a ptukey function and a qtukey function but that is as far as I got. Do I need to roll my own? -- Douglas Bates

I just uploaded to CRAN a prototype nls (nonlinear least squares) library for R. It is far from being finished but I am asking for this preliminary version to be installed in the src/contrib/Devel section of CRAN so others can see the use of function closures to emulate the behaviour of objects in languages like Java. It will be a couple of days before the file is installed in CRAN and has a

I downloaded geepack from your site and installed it from the zip file. However, although it appears under my library directory, I could not load into R. Regards John Sendak platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch i386 os mingw32 system i386, mingw32 status major 1 minor 6.0 year 2002 month 10
