Note that package.descripton() is deprecated in R-1.9.0. You have to use packageDescription() instead. Jim James W.

R: This stems from my curiosity about the previous thread about a request for glm.nb code. The issue of package licenses was brought up and I was hoping for some clarification on that. Using the function license() or licence() gives info on the license for R, but something like license(MASS) does not give info on the license for the MASS package (perhaps it might be good to expand the

R: Is there a reason why there isn't a Windows Binary version of RQuantlib on CRAN? Usually when there is no binary, I just source the source code, but this one appears to have various calls and methods and things like that so I'm hesitant to do so. I know there has been a big discussion on why Rmetrics doesn't have source for unix/linux, but that isn't on CRAN. Through

When I load R-WinEdt (>library(RWinEdt), I get the warning: Warning message: multi-argument returns are deprecated in: return(InstallRoot, RWinEdtInstalled) I have upgraded to R 1. 8 on Windows, by copying non-base libraries into the 1.8 library folder and updating the help. I also reinstalled R-WinEdt from the zip file as detailed in RWinEdt ReadMe file using the recommend (A)

R: I got a warning message when running the cor.test function using both Spearman and Kendall rank correlations saying that the p-value may be incorrect due to ties in the data. My data has 35 obs and one series has 6 pairs of ties. Does anyone know if this would likely have a great effect on the p-values calculated.. The values look good; tau = -0.68 with p-value = 8e-9 and rho = =0.84

R: I have a program that runs a For loop for days and I need to (if possible) pause the program. Any ideas on how to do that? If I use stop, how certain can I be that all the statements executed in the previous iteration of the for loop?

R: I need to minimize a function such that the parameters when used in another function result in a particular value, which i fix. That is, I need min(f(a,b)) given g(a,b)=X, where min(.) is the minimum, f(.) and g(.) are functions (with unknown gradients) of parameters a and b and X is a fixed value. What optimization function(s) in R do you suggest? constrOptim looks like it will work

R-listers: I may be asking too much from R, but is there a way to use time indexing on a time series object. For instance: > tsobject <- ts(1:12, start =1999, freq = 4) > tsobject Qtr1 Qtr2 Qtr3 Qtr4 1999 1 2 3 4 2000 5 6 7 8 2001 9 10 11 12 > tsobject[1999,Qtr4] Error in NextMethod("[") : Object "Qtr4" not found I would

R-Listers: I am doing a quasi-maximum likelihood estimation and I get a "subscript out of bound" error message, Typically I would think this means that a subscript used in the function is literally out of bounds however I don't think this is the case. All I change in the code is a constant, that is hard-wired in (not data dependent and not parameter dependent), furthermore,

R UseRs: I can't figure out how to append intermediate terms inside a For loop. My use of append(), various indexing, and use of data frames, vectors, matrices has been fruitless. Here's a simplified example of what I'm talking about: i <- 1 for(i in 10) { v[i] <- i/10 } > v [1] 1 NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA 1 I would like: [1] 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.6 0.7 0.8 0.9

Yes, par(family="mono") would work, except that I get R segfaults from this sequence: > > plot.new() > par(family="mono") > par(cex=8) > strheight("foo") Process R segmentation fault (core dumped) at Mon Dec 20 16:07:56 2004 on R 2.0.1 (2004-11-15), Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 3 In my code I call strheight and strwidth several times in

Ah, I'm using Exceed Hummingbird 7.1 as the X server.... It does have fixed width fonts, and it is happy with variable width fonts up to this extreme .... A little more fiddling shows that this succeds with a linux based X11 server, and that even plot(1,1) par(family="mono",cex=8) text(1,1,"foo") segfaults. I've tested values of cex. Anything above 2.1249

In trying to determine why someone was unable to use port 110 w/STLS (POP) I had great difficulty finding the session in which the user switched to this port from using port 995. This is because Dovecot does not log any port number information. Furthermore, it isn't obvious to me if it logs whether a session was negotiated SSL (via STARTTLS w/IMAP or STLS w/POP) or started out SSL (ports 993

I would like to run the Federal Reserves econometric model on open source software - they sent me the specifications for the model and what is neccessary to run the model on TROLL (which is a commercially available econometric software) I am looking into the feasability of doing this and whether or not R is the right tool - I would like to discuss the idea with someone who is familiar with this
