I know it isn't done often, so apologies if this posting offends. But after posting the announcement of the open position to a number of other software lists, I was thinking, why not to R-help? (esp since knowing R is one option for meeting the requirements). best, -tony We are looking for an masters level statistician. If interested, feel free to apply. I am available to answer

Wwe are doing some testing in preparation for our migration from Samba 3.6 to Samba 4.x. Because we must share networks with other groups, we want to use the "hosts allow" parameter in smb.conf to restrict who can connect to our Samba domain. This works great in 3.6. I'm unable to get it to work with 4.1.16. That is, I'm unable to join a Windows 7 PC to the Samba 4

Hi, I would appreciate if someone could comment on this problem I am experiencing. I am writing a C++ program to be called from R. In this program, there is a verbose switch that decides whether to print some debugging info using Rprintf. On windows, things work ok. On linux, things are fine in non-verbose mode, but in verbose mode, I get error saying "C stack usage is too close to the

I have been chasing down a problem where PC logins to our Samba server get disconnected from their printer and file shares. Here is the sequence of events: User logs in to PC File shares from NetApp file server are mapped and mounted Printer shares from Samba server go into "opening" state, may or may not become "Ready" Later, mapped network drives are

Is it possible to get the empirical (sandwich) S.E. estimates for the fixed effects in lme () (thus allowing possibly correlated errors within the group)? In SAS you can get it by the 'empirical' option to PROC MIXED. Cheers, Michael -- Na (Michael) Li, Ph.D. Division of Biostatistics A443 Mayo Building, MMC 303 School of Public Health 420 Delaware

Dear R community, I have two questions regarding fitting GLMM using maximum likelihood method. The first one arises from trying repeat an analysis in the Breslow and Clayton 1993 JASA paper. Model 3 of the epileptic dataset has two random effects, one subject specific, and one observation specific. Thus if we count random effects, there are more parameters than observations. When I try to run the

A bug (misfeature) has been found in the S gee library (and thus in the R gee library). The problem, which is shared by nearly all gee implementations, involves the calculation of working correlations when some clusters have only one observation. For compatibility reasons nearly everyone uses the computing formula from the first SAS macro by Karim, rather than the formula from the original GEE

There was a question earlier today, on either r-help or r-devel, about calling R code from FORTRAN (I deleted it accidentally, so I don't know which list it belonged to). Anyway, there is a workaround to call R functions from FORTRAN which is used in the "integrate" library. It was invented for S by Mike Meyer. The FORTRAN code needs to be written to call a fixed C function and

If you subscript a data frame using the names of the columns and there is more than one column with the same name only the first one is found. eg mm<-data.frame(1:10,log(1:10)) names(mm)<-c("(offset)","(offset)") mm[,"(offset)"] # only returns first column mm[,"(offset)"]<-rep(1,10) # only sets first column This *is* compatible with S, but I

The hat() function, returning the diagonal of the hat matrix, currently works only on matrices and doesn't work with weights. Could we make it return lm.influence(x)$hat when inherits(x,"lm")?

Is there a good reason not to allow matrix extents to be zero? I have been writing a function which fits glms under certain linear constraints. I fit the model with a reduced set of variables and then transform back to the original set. This involves operating on submatrices of the covariance matrix and subsets of the coefficients. Sometimes these subsets are empty. A zero-length subset of the

New Sun workstation with Solaris 8. installed the gnu compilers and libraries off the Solaris CD and compiled R successfully. I don't have a tex installation or makeinfo (sp?) so the manuals failed to compile, but otherwise R appears to be working. Unfortunately the on-line help (text-only) isn't working. Is this related to the failed manuals? Example: >?help Error in

I'm been doing more and more of file text parsing inside R instead of coping with Perl. For that, I need open a file and read it line-by-line. I found the documentation for 'open' isn't very clear. Right now it has ,----[ *help(R)[open]* ] | 'open' opens a connection. In general functions using connections | will open them if they are not open, but then close them
