How to solve A'A=S for A
It is not clear to me that one can. If the singular value decomposition
of A is the triple product P d Q', then the singular value decomposition
of A'A=S is Q d^2 Q'. The information about the orthonormal matrix P is
lost, is it not?

More on global environment
To follow up on my previous question, suppose a user R session wants to
unload one workspace and load another within an R session. Is the
following the correct sequence?
1. save.image() to save the current workspace as .Rdata in the current
working directory.
2. rm(list=ls()) to remove everything from the workspace.
3. setcwd("xxx") to set the new working directory.

Changing workspace from within an R session
Hello R-users,
is it possible to navigate from one workspace to the other from within an R
session or does one has to close R and restart it from the directory where
resides the desired workspace?
For example from Splus I have this little function, see at the end, which I
used all the time to navigate between valid Splus directories. I find this
particularly usefull when I develop new

Question about file ownership on destination
Hello
Regarding ownership on the destination:
rsync's man page indicates that when synchronizing files to a remote host,
-o implies the --numeric-ids option, which makes perfect sense aince the
named users/groups may not exist on the destination host. The problem I
have is that the files created on the destination still appear to be owned
by the local user (server1) on the rsync

Startup on Windows 2000
I am having difficulty coming to grips with Appendix B.2 of the
otherwise very useful "An Introduction to R" and the related help file
for Startup. I am running RGui 1.6.0 on a Windows 2000 machine from the
default installation. How the concepts discussed in B.2 and the Startup
help file relate to what I see on my machine is something of a mystery.
I quote from the Startup file:

detection of outliers
Hi,
this is both a statistical and a R question...
what would the best way / test to detect an outlier value among a series of 10 to 30 values ? for instance if we have the following dataset: 10,11,12,15,20,22,25,30,500 I d like to have a way to identify the last data as an outlier (only one direction). One way would be to calculate abs(mean - median) and if elevated (to what extent ?) delete the

stability measures for heirarchical clustering
Dear R users,
I'm interested in measuring the stability of a heirarchical clustering, of
the overall clustering and finding sub clusters (from cutting the
heirarchical clustering at different levels) which demonstrate stability.
I saw some postings on the R help from a while back about bootstrapping for
clustering (using sample and generating a consesus tree with a web based
tool CONSENSE)

kernel 2.6.9-42 is faster
Gents,
Under 4.3 and the associated kernel it took 17 seconds to recompile my
entire application
on my amd 4800+ X2. Down from 1 minute and 20 seconds on my old platform.
I just tried under the new 2.6.9-42 kernel and it is 15 seconds.
So that modification to the kernel for disk improvement seemed to help
my compile time...
Just sharing...
Great work on 4.4.

The hidden costs of GPL software?
Hello,
In the latest 'Scientific Computing World' magazine (issue 78, p. 22), there
is a review on free statistical software by Felix Grant ("doesn't have to
pay good money to obtain good statistics software"). As far as I know, this
is the first time that R is even mentioned in this magazine, given that it
usually discuss commercial products.

NAT proxy concepts
Hi Guys
I have been taking a close look at some networking
opportunities which are being frustrated by the limits which
are imposed by NAT. In particular the constraints impose by
the embargo on double NATing have an impact for a project I
am working on. Has anyone ever seen anything which I would
conceptually describe as a reverse NAT proxy?

Weird series of errors with dovecot-stable
I'm using the dovecot-stable from 7/30, authenticating against an
OpenLDAP server. From time to time, dovecot stops responding to new
queries. It seems to be a self-correcting problem, lasting about 20
minutes.
Here's how it starts:

Heirarchical tree data structure
Hello,
I'm modeling a watershed, and have a file linking individual tributaries
- the name of each tributary and the water body into which it flows
(which can be a tributary of another water body). I want to use this to
build a tree data structure (a root, and then child nodes, linked to
further child nodes, etc.). Is there a package that builds and
traverses such data structures?
Thanks,

Kernel:[Hardware Error]: use of vacuum

It's a good idea, especially in low-humidity climates. Also noteworthy:
the air moving through a hose can cause a vacuum's hose or attachment to
build up a static charge, which is another reason it can be a bad idea
to use a vacuum in a computer.

Question
I own a recording studio. We do a weekly live concert broadcast to Facebook using Wirecast software. There is an internet radio station that uses icecast that wants to carry the audio from my broadcast live. I have no idea how to get the audio to them. I use Mac computers. Can someone help me with that.

Regression Modeling query
Hi All
I received a raw data set with one record per tennis player (both male and
female) and then i cured it by aggregation i.e by 4 age groups, 2 gender
levels and 6 income levels. Gender and Income are categorical variables.
Please advise me how to use 'R' to model this data set (Actually, i want to
