similar to: An "update.packages()" problem?

I have a function "eval.delta" which does what I want but isn't very elegant. I have consulted the R documents, MASS, and S Programming. Is there a practical way to optimize the code? Thank you very much. Peter B. Function: eval.delta <- function(delta){ cat("VALUES\n") vlr <- NULL k <- 0 for(j in 1:length(delta)) if(delta[j] <= 2){

This reminds me of a question I've never asked yet: Is there a trick to make this work when a username authentication is required for using the proxy?

Several of you have asked about `missing' binary versions of packages for Windows on CRAN, although there was an explanation in the ReadMe. Two things have changed: 1) Workload. When I first started this, there were about 20 packages. There are now over 100 (including those in bundles). Further, I rebuilt all the packages for R-1.2.0 in December 2000, but since then more than half

Hello: Many thanks to Professor Ripley for responding to my earlier post, included below, about trying to use mingw32 gcc.I did put back the original Rinternals.h. I am still crashing R every time I try to use C code. Here is what I did, basd on readme.packages: 1.) Ensured that C:\Rtools was first in my path, and obtained a new tools.zip from BDR's R tools site. 2.) Ensured that I

There's more to it than that (which was already fixed in R-devel). The internal code expects there to be columns in the model frame. I have already fixed this in R-devel (by faking an unused column).

Hello Dear R Developers and Users: I'm trying to compile R with all the tools of the CRAN page. I compile the R-1.2.2 version without problem. But when I try to compile the development version 1.3.0 it doesn't work when I write the command: make BUILD=MINGW32 First it shows me something like this (I think without problems): As I make when I compile succesfuly the R-1.2.2 version:

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

Hi R users: I will like to know if somebody works on insurance statistics (actuarial problems) and had use TRICAST, and can tell me if with all the R tools it can be build a solution like TRICAST or similar. In a word: Do you think that R has all the statistical tools (I mean modeling tools) to make a job similar to TRICAST? Does TRICAST has modeling tools that are not implemented on R yet?

Hi all, Thanks to Prof. Ripley, Prof. Gentleman, and Simon Wood (did I miss anyone?). The problem seemed to have gone away. Everyone suggested using some malloc debugger (such as Electric Fence). All I did was following half of what BDR suggested below, i.e., changing all the S_alloc() calls to Calloc() and Free(). I didn't get to try efence, and the problem seems to have disappeared! As

I suspect Prof. Ripley's response suffices. However, there *is* a Parzen kernel for kernel smoothing: Parzen K(z) = { 4/3 - 8z^2 + 8|z|^3 if |z| <= 1/2 8(1 -|z|)^3/3 if 1/2 < |z| <= 1 0 otherwise If I'm not mistaken, this appeared in Parzen's original 1962 paper on kernel density estimation. I also seem to recall

Hi, I am working on a regression tree in Rpart that uses a continuous response variable that is ordered. I read a previous response by Pfr. Ripley to a inquiry regarding the ability of rpart to handle ordinal responses in 2003. At that time rpart was unable to implement an algorithm to handle ordinal responses. Has there been any effort to rectify this in recent years? Thanks! Stacey On

There is a new area on CRAN bin/windows/contrib/ATLAS which contains Rblas's compiled against ATLAS 3.4.1 for various chips. To use one of these, just rename rw1051\bin\Rblas.dll and drop the replacment in its place. Using a tuned BLAS will be noticeably faster only on some linear-algebra calculations, notably those using La.svd and La.eigen (which might be twice as fast). There are
