Am I right in thinking that there a discrepancy between the ?library documentation and the library() function? If I have a library called "patches", then according to the documentation (0.62.4) patches/R should contain source files like fred.R and george.R, but in practice the library only loads if both fred.R and george.R are given in a file called patches in the R subdirectory of

Could someone confirm, please, that this bug report and its proposed fix are being checked? 1. Is my analysis (message below) about right? 2. Is my proposed patch (attached) about right? 3. Is this being addressed for "rc8" (or whatever) and its successors? Many thanks. -- : David Lee I.T. Service : : Senior Systems Programmer

Anyone had any thoughts on the item below? If the problem is with my config, I'd like to be guided towards how I might resolve it. If it is a bug in rc7, it would be good to fix it, and I'd be happy to beta-test. -- : David Lee I.T. Service : : Senior Systems Programmer Computer Centre : :

Hi, I am using 0.63.2 on Windows. I have some functions programmed to do repetitive tasks and have some print(variables) statements to check how my program is progressing but get no output on screen (console) while the program is running. I tried CTRL-W as the help says but I get no screen output before each run terminates. Probably some kind of setting needs to be predefined correctly. Any

Would it be reasonable to suggest adding an `all' flag to save.image(), i.e. "save.image" <- function (f = ".RData", all.names = F) eval(substitute(save(list = ls(all.names = all.names), file = f)), .GlobalEnv) I only ask because I keep losing my .First() function. I would like to start R in a particular directory and have it configure according to the First()

I have a plot where the values of the y axis go from a positive number to a negative number and I want the x axis to intercept at zero rather than at the bottom of the y axis, regardless of its value. Can anyone help me to do this? Thanks in advance Vivien Vivien Kent MSc Oxon PhD candidate Evolutionary Anthropology Research Group Department of Anthropology Durham University Dawson

Hi Everyone, I have modified my version of R-1.4.1 to include choleski with pivoting (like in Splus). I thought R-core might consider including this in the next version of R, so I give below the steps required to facilitate this. 1. Copied Linpack routine "dchdc.f" into src/appl 2. Inserted line F77_SUBROUTINE(dchdc) in src/appl/ROUTINES 3. Inserted "dchdc.f" into

(OS: Fedora Core 5; dovecot: 1.0 rc7) On a typical UNIX-like OS, the INBOXes are in "/var/spool/mail/" using the user identifier: so user 'fred' has INBOX "/var/spool/mail/fred". We have a well-established different convention which subdivides this, based on the last two digits of the uid: "/var/spool/mail/12/fred" (for fred's uid as something ending

Can I suggest that in cov and cor the lines if (is.data.frame(x)) x <- as.matrix(x) if (is.data.frame(y)) y <- as.matrix(y) be replaced by if (is.data.frame(x)) x <- data.matrix(x) # coerce logical and factors if (is.data.frame(y)) y <- data.matrix(y) # likewise This would allow things like > data(iris) > cor(iris) which

Hi everyone, I do a lot of work with large variance matrices, and I like to use "crossprod" for speed and to keep everything symmetric, i.e. I often compute "crossprod(Q %*% t(A))" for "A %*% Sigma %*% t(A)", where "Sigma" decomposes as "t(Q) %*% Q". I notice in the code that "crossprod", current definition > crossprod function (x,

According to the assign helpfile (0.90.1) the "assign" function is function (x, value, pos = -1, envir = sys.frame(sys.parent()), inherits = FALSE, immediate = TRUE) which is not quite the implementation, which is function (x, value, pos = -1, envir = pos.to.env(pos), inherits = FALSE, immediate = TRUE) This seems to have the following interesting effect. "short.fun"

Hi everyone, Can I suggest an addition to the help page for logical AND and OR, indicating the behaviour of NA (which is currently not mentioned at all). I think something simple like an extra paragraph in Details, eg \code{NA} is a valid logical object. Where a component of \code{x} or \code{y} is \code{NA}, the result will be \code{NA} if the outcome is ambiguous. In other words \code{NA

The following gives an immediate segmentation fault, v 0.90.1 "fred" <- function(x) { print(x); Recall(x-1)} fred(0) # segmentation fault at recursion 831 Obviously this recursion is non-terminating, but shouldn't it be caught and reported at some limit? In 0.64.1 we had Error: protect(): stack overflow at recursion 831. Cheers, Jonathan. Jonathan Rougier

Hi Everyone, Is there a simple way to force nlm to take larger initial steps? Setting print.level = 2 allows me to inspect the step size at each iteration, but I appear not to have made any appreciable impact on it by changing values of typsize, fscale, steptol or stepmax. The steps repeatedly come out tiny, 1e-9 typically, and the algorithm is terminating not because the gradient is zero (it

Timo: As discussed over the last couple of days. Please could the attached patch be applied to "deliver.c" so that it can log (syslog etc.) final delivery into the destination mailbox. This completes a hitherto missing part in logging an email's progress; it is useful (for example) to diagnose "my email wasn't delivered" problems. Thanks. -- : David Lee

(Using rc7 code) There seems to be a bug in rsh/ssh-style connections. For reference, on a normal imap connection (port 143, 993, etc.) things are OK. The imap session ends (from a client-end command "a logout") thus: --- a logout * BYE Logging out a OK Logout completed. Connection closed by foreign host. unix-prompt% --- But when the connection had been established using rsh or ssh
