similar to: Upgrade to 1.5.0

Dear R-help, I was able to build R-1.5.0 on WinNT w/o problem (actually it seems easier than previous version). However, I encountered problem when trying to compile the recommended package foreign: make: Entering directory `/cygdrive/g/rbuild/R-1.5.0/src/gnuwin32' make DLLNM= FLIBS="-lg2c -lRblas" BUILD=MINGW \ -C G:/Rbuild/R-1.5.0-recommended/R.INSTALL/foreign PKG=foreign

Hello. First, I'm thankful about your wonderful project. However, I have serious worries about the reliability of R. I found the next bug which I consider important because in my job everytime We work with datanames like next.

My Rgui crashes quite a lot when entering certain characters. I put a freshly extracted msvcrt.dll into the rw1050\bin directory, but this did not fix the problem. Perhaps, as stated in the FAQ section, I need also "put the rw1050\bin directory early in your path" but I do not know how to do it in Windows Me. Please could you give me some help? E. Barahona

This must be rather elementary. My apologies. I am using release 1.5.0.

Full_Name: Wolfgang Huber Version: 1.5.1 OS: Windoof 2000 Submission from: (NULL) (193.174.62.11) Hi, Trying to install the binary distribution (zip file) for the "pixmap" package, as downloaded today from CRAN, I get the following warning "error -1". The package will not be installed. Installation of other packages (e.g. pinktoe, acepack) worked fine. The warning or error

Dears users, Thanks for your responses concerning my question of yesterday (about stand-alone package). Il would like to explore two ways: -- Tcltk extension, -- Rweb application. I have installed ActiveTcl (in F:\Tcl), and I have modified the PATH (in the autoexec.bat file): set R_LIBS=F:\R\rw1050\library set PATH=%PATH%;F:\Tcl\bin set PATH=%PATH%;F:\Tcl\lib set PATH=%PATH%;F:\R\rw1050\bin

Please allow me to add just a little more about this: nothing wrong with pweibull(), namely, the two cases I reported: pweibull(3:10, 2) and pweibull(3:10, 2.1), in rw1041 and earlier version. I wonder this might just due to the change from rw1041 to rw1050, however, I can't find anything relevant (seems to me) in the News or Readme. Thanks Sundar for the suggestion of using 1 -

Hi R-users: We need to place the y label horizontally on a plot. Instead of | l | a | b | e | l | |__________ we want | | label | | | |______________ We thank you any advice. Yours, Juan Carlos Correa, Ph.D. Profesor Asociado Escuela de Estadística Universidad Nacional-Sede Medellín

Hello All: I am trying to replicate the results of an example found in Alan Agresti's "Categorical Data Analysis" on pages 267-269. The example is one of a 2 x 2 cross-classification table of ordinal counts: job satisfaction and income. I am able to get Agresti's results for the independence model (G^2 = 12.03 with df = 9) assuming as he does that the data is nominal, but

Hallo all Suppose I have a summary amount of various colours used in different areas colour plastic paint black 15.5 173.8 brown 6.0 523.2 green 2.5 6.4 red 77.1 237.4 yellow 144.6 77.3 It seems that there are some preferable colours in these two areas (yellow in plastic, brown an red in paint). The problem seems to me similar to chi square test but it is intended for testing counts or

I have a isohybrid-ized image (isohybrid.pl from syslinux-4.03, no options passed) which works on several other systems, but can't boot a Kontron CG2100 from stick (same image boots fine from a portable CD-ROM drive though). The BIOS shows its initial splash, accesses the stick, then the system reboots - no errors logged in the BIOS event log. I tried disabling the "USB boot

Something strange is happening with update.packages on my machine (Win2000, R-1.5.0 installed from binaries). Some of the packages (see below) keep getting updated every time. When I issue update.packages() I get this every time for the last few days (I think since I installed 1.5 and the packages but I am not sure). This happens with CRAN shown below and also with CRAN set to

Hi R users: Thank you very much for you help, you are very kind. I am again asking for your help to make a function that returns the numbers of elements of each category given in another vector. I mean, I have a vector "x" with several elements (most of them more that once) and other vector "y" with the elements that I want to count in the first vector (is not a exhaustive

Hi! I am using R1.5.0. When using functions form lattice the background is dark grey. I have tried to change it using par() but it does not work. By the way, if I use par and the standard functions like hist() there is no problem with the par function. Any hints? Thank in advance, Ignacio Perez Escuela Colombiana de Ingenieria

I've put up a build of the current R-patched (and updated recommended packages) for Windows at http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/RWin/Rpre/SetupRpatched.exe This should be able to rename files on Win 9x (unlike the mid-May build) and can build packages accessing Rblas.dll. As ever, this is less tested than an official release, in particular only on Windows XP, but ought to have fewer

I have a probably basic problem concerning the R language. I will write some small R programs but don't really know how to start. Do I have to create my files in some editor like emacs or can I write my code in the R prompt? How to compile the code? I haven't found any good manual parts about this subject. regards A.P
