Dear List, RMySQL is old and wouldn't install on R 2.0.1. How should the source be rewritten to be accepted by R 2.0.1. With thanks Fredrik Lundgren

Dear List, While trying to define a customised CITATION file for a package, following R-exts, I realised that if I use only one 'citEntry' I got both a text description and a BibTex entry for the package, as for the 'nlme' package: -------------------------- citation('nlme') To cite package 'nlme' in publications use: Jose Pinheiro, Douglas Bates, Saikat

Hello, I have been using RODBC on Windows with version 1.41 of R successfully, connecting to a mysql database using MyODBC. Now I would like to do so with R under Debian/GNU Linux. I just tried RMySQL (install failed, since mysql libraries were not found), DBI (no MySQL driver available) and I can't find the RODBC package any more on CRAN. Any suggestions? Johannes Ranke P.S.: Thanks for

Function in the base library of R 1.8.0 seems to use a search path with base coming before the local environment. I think this is intentional and is related to base being a namespace. > log <- function(x, base) 200 > log(1) [1] 200 > log10 function (x) log(x, 10) <environment: namespace:base> > log10(1) [1] 0 > This is most problematic when you are creating a

If .../<pkg>/man/ contains a filename beginning with [, such as [.datetimes, Rdconvlib.pl cannot convert that help file into latex at INSTALL time.

Forgive me if this isn't relevant, but: are you stripping off the output you need (e.g., parameter estimates) and throwing away what you don't (e.g., residuals)?

Hello- I understand that it's convention, when comparing two models using the anova function anova(model1, model2), to put the more "complicated" (for want of a better word) model as the second model. However, I'm using lme in the nlme package and I've found that the order of the models actually gives opposite results. I'm not sure if this is supposed to be the case

Hello, I am interested in using nlme to model repeated measurements, but I don't seem to get good CIs. With the code below I tried to generate data sets according to the model given by equations (1.4) and (1.5) on pages 7 and 8 of Pinheiro and Bates 2000 (having chosen values for beta, sigma.b and sigma similar to those estimated in the text). For each data set I used lme() to fit a model,

I think this is a moment to lean back from daily business, details or whatsoever and appreciate the impressive achievment of Ross, Robert and the R-core team. Incredible! They created an impressive and extremely useful software, for teaching, research and more. Besides these direct practical benefits, I think this project is more: it gives an outstanding example of international cooperation and

I have some questions about S4 style methods and generics. First of all, is there any way of using default values for arguments in the generics/methods? My own experiments show that such arguments are always ignored. The green book seems to be silent on this matter. The second question is about using a non-trivial function body for generics. Page 351 of the green book gives an example of this

Saikat DebRoy is working on a revised "foreign" package (currently in the src/contrib/Devel area on CRAN) that will include the ability to read the SPSS save format. Since we don't use SPSS we don't have easy access to a sample data set and have been using PSPP (see http://pspp.stat.wisc.edu/) to generate test data. It would be more realistic to have a small, redistributable

Hi, I need to write a function that would look something like this: S <- function(b=betas){ expression(b[1] * f(b[2] * x * f(b[3] * x * f(...b[n-1] * x * f(b[n] * x)))...) } Where n is the number of element in b. Further I need to be able to evaluate S at some x numerically of course and I need to use "deriv" and produce dS/dx such that I can evaluate it also at some x. I
