In version 0.9 I ran a command file of 489 lines with source(" ") In version 1.0 I do the same and get Error in parse(file, n, text, prompt) : unable to open file for parsing This has something to do with the length of the command file. If I paste the individual lines into R it is OK, if I only use few lines of the code is is OK as well. The problem is affected by

To R-users I have been using R for many years and I am very happy with it. One thing puzzles me. Graphic postscript files tend to become quite big, much bigger than corresponding splus postscript files. Does anybody have a hint to avoid this? best regards Helgi -- Helgi Tomasson FAX: 354-552-6806 University of Iceland

Dear R-people Does someone have a routine to ngenerate inverse-gaussian random numbers. I am thinking of something similar to rinvgauss, pinvgauss etc. in S-plus. best regards Helgi -- Helgi Tomasson FAX: 354-552-6806 University of Iceland PHONE:354-525-4571 Faculty of Economics and Business Administration

To R-people I recently downloaded an rpm for suse-linux of R-1.0 for suse 6.3. There plot(tx,spax,type='l',ylim=range(ytx),ylab="",xlab="",xaxt="n",yaxt="n") does not seem to supress printing on the axis. The same statement seemed to work well in R-0.9 on a redhat 5.2 (compiled by myself). Has anyone had the same experience? regards Helgi

I am creating postscript-graphics in R. When I import them into a LATEX document it is impossible to get the caption close to the figure. I run the same program in Splus, and no problem of getting the caption just below the figure. Another thing, the ps file that S created is only 10% of the size of the file that R created. What is wrong? Are there some parameters to be set? Helgi

I just compiled R-1.1.0 on two systems, redhat 5.2 (sparse) and suse 6.3 (loaded) . On redhad I got x11 support yes on suse I got x11support no. I cannot figure out the difference ./configure gives in both cases Source directory: . Installation directory: /usr/local C compiler: gcc -mieee-fp -D__NO_MATH_INLINES -g -O2 FORTRAN compiler: g77 -g -O2 X11

I am trying to install a redhat binary. When I do rpm -i name-of-rpm file I get R-061 needs @PERL@ and R-061 needs /usr/bin/perl, /bin/perl /sh and /bin/sh What is @PERL@? I have perl installed in /usr/bin. If I run control-panel I get "missing" in the problem column. Does anyone know what the problem is? HT -- Helgi Tomasson FAX:

Has R been ported to 64-bit platforms? E.g. as in FORTRAN when you define double precision number as: REAL*16 I have heard that some SUN computers already offer 64-bit architecture but I am unsure about the GNU support for that hardware. I am seeking increased accuracy in floating point operations. regards Helgi -- Helgi Tomasson FAX: 354-552-6806

Dear R-users Do you know of an easy way in R of performing "isotonic (unimodal)" regression ala BBBB, Barlow, Bartolomew, Brenner and Brunk. best regards Helgi -- Helgi Tomasson FAX: 354-552-6806 University of Iceland PHONE:354-525-4571 Faculty of Economics and Business Administration email:helgito at

Dear List, First off, my deepest gratitude to the Sweave developers: this tool has improved my quality greatly. A question in my work I use \Sexpr{} statements scalar values and the xtable package for all manner of tables. What I'd like to do is to use a vector inline, rather than a whole separate table. Something like: %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% begin code % Latex junk % Sweave block:

Hi, I have a set of covariance matrices but not the original data. I want to carry out some exploratory factor analysis. So, I am trying to construct a covariance matrix list as the input for factanal. I can construct a list which includes the cov, the centers, and the n.obs. But it doesn't work. I get an error that says "Error in sqrt(diag(cv)) : Non-numeric argument to mathematical

Dear all, I've sent this question 2 days ago and got response from Sarah. Thanks for that. But unfortunately, it did not really solve our problem. The main issue is that we want to use our own (manipulated) covariance matrix in the calculation of the mahalanobis distance. Does anyone know how to vectorize the below code instead of using a loop (which slows it down)? I'd really appreciate

Dear all, I know there have been various questions posted over the years about loops but I'm afraid that I'm still stuck. I am using Windows XP and R 2.9.2. I am generating some data using the multivariate normal distribution (within the 'mnormt' package). [The numerical values of sanad and covmat are not important.] > datamat <-

Hi, I am having trouble using constrOptim. My target is to do a portfolio optimization and there some constraints have to be fulfilled. 1) The weight of each share of the portfolio has to be greater than 0 2) The sum of these weights has to be 1 I am able to fulfill either the first or the second constraint but not both. One simple way would be to fulfill the first constraint by using optim as

Hi Now a more theoretical question. I have two correlation matrices - one of a set of variables under a particular condition, the other of the same set of variables under a different condition. Is there a statistical test I can use to see if these correlation matrices are "different"? Thanks Mick

I know this may be a bit off topic... I'm trying to play a pre-recorded message to a group of Aastra phones using multicast paging. I can page phone to phone without issue, but sending from one of my servers to the phones results in garbled audio. Anyone else been able to make this work without problem? My VLC command line is below. cvlc -v emergency-test2.wav --norm-max-level=5 --sout
