Hi, would it be possible to change the hist() function in future R Versions to accept a "plot=F" parameter (like hist() in S it should return a list with "breaks" and "counts" in this case). This change should be very simple. Albrecht ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Albrecht Gebhardt email :

Hi, I updated my R rpms for SuSE systems. They are now available both for S.u.S.E 5.3 and SuSE 6.0 under ftp://ftp.ci.tuwien.ac.at/pub/R/bin/linux/suse/ Additionally I put binaries for DEC Alpha systems running Digital Unix 4.0 under ftp://ftp.ci.tuwien.ac.at/pub/R/bin/osf/osf4.0/alpha/ These packages are available as rpms and as a setld kit. setld is the Digital Unix package maintanance

Hi, I'm searching for a way to override the default CFLAGS/FFLAGS (-g -02 in my case) per package (e.g with "-g" for packages under development). PKG_CFLAGS/PKG_FFLAGS is prepended to the remaining flags, so it can't delete a globally set "-O2" flag. Of course I can edit the global Makeconf file, but I was wondering if there is a possibility to override variables from

During testing with R-devel on the alpha I just noticed (after misspelling "bin/R" as "bin/R.bin") that R.bin segfaults. It accesses the empty R_HOME variable and should better give an error instead of a crash: a gdb output snippet: ... Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x3ff800d6a10 in strcpy () (gdb) backtrace #0 0x3ff800d6a10 in strcpy () #1 0x1200efda0

I wanted to use the dist() function from the mva library in my own library, so I put require(mva) in my files. When my library loads, a message about "Autoloading ... mva" appears. But when I call dist() now within my functions the message Error in .C("dist", as.double(x), nrow(x), ncol(x), double(len), as.integer(method)) : C/Fortran function not in load table appears.

Would it be possible to include a new command in the ${RHOME}/etc path, which updates the Library index (Rd and html) via "R LIBINDEX". I need it because I use RPM to manage three different R installations (at home, at the institute and in the seminar rooms). I put all libraries into several packages, so it is easy for me to update a single library at all these different places. But

Hi, I'm currently hunting a bug in the akima library, especially in the code behind the interpp.old function (bi-variate linear interpolation). It is based on a triangulation algorithm, interpolation at a given point needs to know the triangle which contains this point, then the interpolation is a straightforward calculation based on the three vertexes. The problem is: Sometimes the triangle

Currently I'm porting the spatial library from "Venables W.N., Ripley, B.D. (1995): Modern applied statistics with S-PLUS, Springer" to R. Now it seems to work with R-0.50-a4, but I guess it has to be adjusted when R 0.60 comes out. So my questions are: What changes will appear in library sources (directories, Makefile, help page format)? Can I get an unofficial pre-version

Hi, this modified version of help.start() makes it possible to store R Documentation on your (intranet) webserver. This could be necessary if you run netscape and R from different systems on one X11 display (if there is no $RHOME directory on the host running netscape). help.start() <- function (gui = "irrelevant", browser = "netscape", remote = NULL) { if

It seems, that if I set oldpar$fin to values greater than listed above

There seems to be an error in the X11 display code: try: plot(c(-30000,-1,0,1,30000),c(30000,1,0,1,30000),type="l") points(c(-30000,-1,0,1,30000),c(30000,1,0,1,30000)) it gives a big "V" as expexted. Now zoom in using small xlim and ylim: plot(c(-30000,-1,0,1,30000),c(30000,1,0,1,30000),type="l", xlim=c(-5,5),ylim=c(0,5))

Hi, first versions of RPMs of R and its libraries for SuSE 5.3 are available at CRAN: ftp://ftp.ci.tuwien.ac.at/pub/R/bin/linux/suse/ I compiled it with gcc and g77 from egcs 1.1b.

I discovered a bug in hist(). Try the following: x<-c(-5,-4,-4,-4,-3,-3,-3,-3,-2,-2,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,3,3,5,6) # Note that sum(x)<0: sum(x) # [1] -13 hist(x) # looks ok hist(x,freq=F) # negative bars !! # and finally this gives not 1: sum(hist(x,plot=F)$rel.freqs) # [1] -0.8076923 The reason is, that "sum(x)" is used instead of "length(x)" in the following line near

Sometimes I find it useful to put C or Fortran sources under subdirs of "mypackage/src", especially to distinguish between my own files and e.g. lapack or blas sources. To get this working I would need a Makefile in my package which contains the appropriate dependencies to these sources in subdirs. But I don't want to add a complete Makefile, I want only a Makevars file containing

Hi, I am searching for a way to solve the following problem: I want to use an external function, defined in a dyn.load()ed shared object, in another dyn.load()ed shared object. Currently I have to take the sources (Fortran) from one libraries src/ directory and copy them into the src/ dir of the other library, resulting in two copies of this function. This is bad for maintanance and maybe also
