Hi David, I hope all is well w/ you. Co-operation beetwen R and Ox would be most welcome. A possible problem lies in the fact that, although free for academic use, Ox is not open source. I too have been using Ox for computer-intensive programming. I also code some of my programs in C, but I always try Ox first, and in most cases it is efficient enough. For details, see

I'll be even more tangent. Those interested in Ox, see http://www.de.ufpe.br/~cribari/ox.pdf Cheers, Francisco.

I have just upgraded from Red Hat Linux 5.2 to version 6.0 (with GNOME) on an intel box. I have also upgraded to the latest R version (0.64.1-2 rpm) and have also installed the corresponding GNOME rpm. However, I am not able to start R: [cribari at edgeworth install]$ R /usr/lib/R/bin/R.binary: error in loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/R/bin/R.binary: undefined symbol: __setfpucw [cribari at

I am running R 1.2.2 under Linux. When using the function stl in the ts library, how can I save the seasonal component? What I would like was something like: library(ts) data(nottem) data.stl <- stl(nottem, "per") x <- data.stl$sea This what I get: > x NULL I would, however, like to store in x the seasonal component. Thanks in advance. Francisco. -- Francisco

Does anyone have an R function for the estimation of Tobit regression models (for censored responses), as described, e.g., in Davidson, R. and MacKinnon, J.G., 1993, Section 15.7, Estimation and Inference in Econometrics, Oxford University Press?

A nice free software with a GUI-interface (which can be linked to R, BTW) is GRETL: http://gretl.sourceforge.net/ . Some people may find it useful for basic stuff.

I am running R 1.2.1 under Mandrake Linux 7.2 (installed from RPM) and I installed a few packages using install.packages() . Now, I am trying to upgrade these packages using update.packages() but I believe I am running into some kind of error. See below. Any tips will be greatly welcome. Thanks in advance. Francisco PS: update.packages() only tries to update wle from version 0.3 to 0.4, gives

Hi I would like to start by thanking everyone that replied. Thank you for the information, and for the comments about how or why you use it and thankx for the encouragement re my talk.... Please note that I do not claim to have ellicited a reply from all users of R, this is a quick survey not a census. I have tried to break the responces down to the following categories: Where: (hopefully

I am new to R and I was wondering if I could ask a few questions. (I am running R on a Windows NT box.) 1. Is the random number generator in R the same as the one in S "Super-Duper")? 2. Is it possible to use dyn.load in the Windows version? 3. When is the next release of R coming out? Thanks a lot. Best, Francisco --

Two questions: 1. inverse.gaussian is up there as one of the glm families, but do people ever use it? There is no inverse.gaussian in the R distribution family, and when I checked McCullagh & Nelder, it only appeared twice in the book (according to subject index), once in the table on p. 30 and once on p. 38 in a passing sentence. Is there a good reference on this distribution? 2. When I

Dear R community, I wrote and someone else helped me type a 5-page R-info in Chinese, covering the most basic information on how to get and install and start using R on Wintel PC. This could serve those not fluent in/intimidated by English but want to start using R.

Hi, I was thinking to ask the University computing Labs here to install R and I was told they need a statement that the software (R) is Y2K compliant. Which I cannot find in CRAN. (in addition to the licensing info). Is it a big issue to put such a statement in R? or this has legal implications that R do not want as a "free" software? If possible I would like to see the statement on

Greetings, Is it possible to use Samba 3.6.20 as a stand-alone server? We do not have any Windows servers, and we have no domain or AD. Our goal is to use Samba with the Linux (Unix) permissions and avoid using ACLs. Can this be done? If so, what lines in the smb.conf would control this? Thanks!
