I'm encountering a couple problems configuring and making R 0.64 under linux, redhat 5.2 These problems didn't occur when I build 0.63.2 Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. (1) configure generates the warning: "configure: warning: Cannot determine how to create shared libraries. Please set CPICFLAGS, FPICFLAGS and SHLIBLDFLAGS in `config.site'." I'm not

As I understand it, sum() treats a logical vectors as 1's and 0's, so that > is.logical(c(FALSE,TRUE,FALSE)) [1] TRUE > sum(c(FALSE,TRUE,FALSE)) [1] 1 However, summing the results of an is.na() yields a negative number. Eg > is.na(c(1,NA,3)) [1] FALSE TRUE FALSE > is.logical(is.na(c(1,NA,3))) [1] TRUE > sum(is.na(c(1,NA,3))) [1] -1 (This is from R Version 0.64.0,

Is there anyway (other than 'repeat'') of catching the errors that R throws? Thanks, ------------------- Barnet Wagman wagman at enteract.com 773-645-8369 1361 N.

I'm have what's probably a trivial &| silly problem trying to access a c-function in a shared library ( R 0.64, under redhat linux 5.2). R COMPILE rctest.c R SHLIB -o libRC.so rctest.o produce a reasonable looking shared library ('nm libRC.so' shows that the function 'rctest' is present). In R, the command dyn.load("/fullpathname/libRC.so")

I wonder if someone could explain how the following R idiom works (it's used in glm.fit). start <- coef start[fit$pivot] <- coef coef is a vector of coefficients, set by .Fortran("dqrls", ...). fit$pivot is a vector of integer indexes (indicating how dqrls permuted the columns of x). If coef has n elements, fit$pivot is a permutation of seq(1,5). start[fit$pivot]

Since there doesn't appear to be an RMySQL rpm for SuSE 8.*, does anyone know if the 7.3 version will work with the SuSE 8.2 rpms of R and DBI? The package installs without complaint, but when I try to run con <- dbConnect(dbDriver("MySQL"),dbname="test") I get the error Error in dbConnect(dbDriver("MySQL")) : couldn't find function

He was suggesting to upgrade to 15.10 if you needed the newer fortran for some reason (or other newer things only in backports or not even there). I also mostly run LTS versions of Ubuntu, especially in my research group where I manage our cloud/servers. Which also matches the computer cluster available to me. That said I also stick to the stock packages for all the basic underlying libraries

According David Jame's response to my earlier question, there is a problem with setGeneric.setMethod in R 1.8.0 that affects DBI and RMySQL. Is there a fix for this? David Jame's refers to an 'R-patched version' but I haven't seen anything like this on CRAN. Would going back to an older version of R solve the problem? Thanks, Barnet Wagman "David James wrote:

In glm, is there a way to specify the family to be exponential, or Gamma but with alpha=1? This is required by Dobson Exercise 4.3d, page 48. But without specifying alpha=1, the asnwer is the same as in the book. If reply to the list, please cc me a copy.

Dear list, I'm trying to mimic the analysis of Wedderburn (1974) as cited by McCullagh and Nelder (1989) on p.328-332. This is the leaf-blotch on barley example, and the data is available in the `faraway' package. Wedderburn suggested using the variance function mu^2(1-mu)^2. This variance function isn't readily available in R's `quasi' family object, but it seems to me

I haven't been able to find any documentation explaining what these errors mean (and if they're serious). If anyone can give me some guidance on this, I'd very much appreciate it.

I don't know much about GLM in general or glm in R. Can anyone tell me how to do the following (in R or some other stat system) or refer me to a textbook discussion?

I am assuming the correct way to proceed is to fit a generalized linear model with binomial responses and logistic link. But I have not found a

In the iterations prior to the error, glm() generates the warnings
