Thanks Thomas and Marc that is what I was looking for. -Jason The DESCRIPTION file for a package lists the license; this is also given in the CRAN entry for each package. -thomas Marc Schwartz <MSchwartz@MedAnalytics.com> 03/30/2004 09:02 AM Please respond to MSchwartz To: Jason.L.Higbee@stls.frb.org cc: R-Help

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

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: 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

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 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,

I've just encountered a segfault when using DierckxSpline::percur function. Below is the minimal example which triggers the error: --- library(DierckxSpline) x <- 1:10 y <- rep(0, 10) pspline <- percur(x, y) --- *** caught segfault *** address (nil), cause 'memory not mapped' Traceback: 1: .Fortran("percur", iopt = as.integer(iopt), m = as.integer(m), x =

When I saw the subject of the original message on R-help, I was 95% confident that I knew the answer (before I had seen the question). This made me think that perhaps for some functions there should be a 'Troubleshooting' section in the help file. The current help file for 'integrate' does say, as Sundar points out, what the requirements are. However, I think more people would

Any way of mixing bold and plain fonts in text() (or mtext(), etc.)? I'm looking for a solution that doesn't require manually spacing two calls of text(). For example: text(x=0,y=0,labels="bold(Figure 1.) plain(This is a picture.)") where "Figure 1." is bold-faced and "This is a picture." is plain-faced. I've tried to trick plotmath into doing this but

An example from the sos package: Its DESCRIPTION file says Author: Spencer Graves, Sundar Dorai-Raj, and Romain Francois. However, the package includes a findFn function, whose help file includes an Author(s) section, which reads, "Spencer Graves, Sundar Dorai-Raj, Romain Francois. Duncan Murdoch suggested the "???" alias for "findFn" and contributed the code for

Hey Guys, I figured someone might have use of this at some point. I've created an iRule for our F5 Load Balancer which performs the following tasks: - Appends STLS to the POP3 Capability list (it does this blindly, so expects the backend POP3 server to not return this) - Watches for the STLS command and initiates SSL negotiation with the client (leaves the connection to the

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
