Hi, I have submitted a package to CRAN in ftp://ftp.tuwien.ac.at/incoming/pastecs_1.0.tar.gz. The R extension manual advises to send a mail to cran at ci.tuwien.ac.at about it, but it fails. I have also tried WWWadmin at ci.tuwien.ac.at. Are these email adresses still valid? Best, Philippe Grosjean ...........]<(({?<...............<?}))><............................... ) ) ) )

Hello all, Since I got no answer to my first mail, I suspect I did not formulate my question adequately, so I try again. In R, one can debug or trace a function 'foo' with debug(foo) or trace(foo), respectively. This leads to a special treatment of the function 'foo' until one enter undebug(foo) or untrace(foo). I would like to know if there is a convenient way to know at any

Hi all, I have a bit of a newbie question here that I hope y'all can help with. I've run a cluster analysis using hclust on about 500 objects (using R1.3 under Win 2000). The problem is that the tips of the dendrogram are so close together on the plot that the labels overlap and are unreadable. I've used "cex" to reduce the label sizes but this isn't sufficient with so

Thorsten is right. There is a direct formula for computing the Moore-Penrose inverse using the singular value composition of a matrix. This is incorporated in the following: mpinv <- function(A, eps = 1e-13) { s <- svd(A) e <- s$d e[e > eps] <- 1/e[e > eps] return(s$v %*% diag(e) %*% t(s$u)) } Hope it helps. Dietrich

It's two days I try to answer to a mail of Achim Zeileis, the maintainer of strucchange package, using the mail address: zeileis at ci.tuwien.ac.at. I got the following error: ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- <zeileis at ci.tuwien.ac.at> (reason: 550 5.7.1 <zeileis at ci.tuwien.ac.at>... Access denied) Can anyone tell me how to reach him?

Hi, I have 16 tables of 39 variables with around 1500 to 3500 cases in each table. These 16 tables are in 16 different data frames. I want to merge them in a single large data frame, so: All <- rbind(T1, T2, ...) The problem: it is VERY slow, and takes a lot of memory (> 500 Mb) on my Athlon XP1800+, 1.75 Go memory, Win 2000 Pro SP1, R 1.4.1. Any suggestion to improve speed, and/or memory

Hello, I am doing several self-starting growth functions for using with nls().

using: identify(...., plot=FALSE) allows identifying points in a graph without printing the corresponding label in the graph. This works fine in R for Windows. However, when I copy the graph as metafile into Word, the corresponding label appears in black font in the copied picture. Obviously, identify() prints the label anyway, in "invisible" font or so, in the graph, and this

Hello, I would like to plot two superposed surfaces (original data, and smoothed models). Basically, I would like to create a usual persp plot with box, and then superpose a second surface (without box and axes) on the top plane of the box defined by the first graph. I don't know if it is clear :-( Is it possible to draw such a second surface in an existing persp plot in R? Another (related)

Dear R and S users, I've been working on fitting finite mixture of negative exponential distributions using maximum likelihood based on the example given in MASS. So far I had much success in fitting two components. The problem started when I tried to extend the procedure to fit three components. More specifically, likelihood = sum( ln(c1*exp(-x/lambda1)/lambda1 + c2*exp(-x/lambda2)/lambda2

Hi, I need help regarding estimating a linear model where restrictions are imposed on the coefficients. An example is as follows: Y_{t+2}=a1Y_{t+1} + a2 Y_t + b x_t + e_t restriction a1+ a2 =1 Is there a function or a package that can estimate the coefficient of a model like this? I want to estimate the coefficients rather than test them. Thank you for your help Ahmad Abu Hammour --------------

Hi there, I've got this vector: -84 -87 -90 -90 -89 -86 NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA -96 -99 -100 -99 -96 -92 -89 -87 -87 -88 -90 -92 -94 -95 -96 -97 -97 -97 -96 -95 Is there a function in R which replaces the NAs with "interpolated" values between -86 and -96? Thanks, Sven

Let A be a m by n matrix and b a length n vector. What is the fastest vectorized code for doing for(j in 1:n) A[, j] <- A[, j]/b[j] ? solution 1: t(t(A)/b) solution 2: B <- matrix( rep(b, m), byrow=T, nrow=m ) A/B anything else? I have a program that uses this kind of operation million of times and I appreciate your input. Thanks. Jason Liao ===== Jason G. Liao Department of

Hello Thomas, I am writting to you because I have some questions about R-(D)COM. The first one is whether it can compiled using the MINGW C compiler, that is recomended by B. Ripley to compile R under Windows. The other questions are: - How can I open/close connections directly from C/C++? - Do you know about a free Visual Basic compiler? The final purpose of using R-(D)COM is to create a
