I think this is a good idea. Is there a reason why it got no interest? Slippery slope? Or maybe others were also just occupied trying to figure out how Joshua's second message had timestamp earlier than his first message?

Well pointed out, Jim! It is infortunate that the documentation for options(digits=...) does not mention that these are *significant digits* and not *decimal places* (which is what Joshua seems to want): "?digits?: controls the number of digits to print when printing numeric values." On the face of it, printing the value "0,517" of 'ccc' looks like printing 4

Summary: + I am writing an R extension that needs to call dmvnorm more than 10,000 times during a model fitting computation. + My extension uses openmp for parallel execution. + As of R 3.0, it is no longer permitted for threads to call the R interpreter because there is a stack overflow check that always trips because the thread's stack is different from what R is expecting. +

In short: I didn't take enough stats courses in college. Now I am working on scientific research and I feel somewhat lost when it comes to designing the statistical framework. I have looked through the books at: http://www.r-project.org/doc/bib/R-books.html I even tried to read [17] Julian J. Faraway. Linear Models with R. This book is too advanced. It helped a little bit but I still

Can anybody, please, explain me how many parameter are estimated using randomLCA? For examples, model "dentistry.lca2random" estimate 1 scale (or variance, b_j) parameter and 2 position parameters (a_cj)? Doesn't it? Do I need at least 4 diagnostic tests for such a model? What happens if I specify options blocksize and byclass? How many diagnostic tests (or rater) I need?

I fitted a GAM model with Poisson distribution to a data with about 200 observations. I noticed that the plot of the residuals versus fitted values show a trend. Residuals tend to be lower for higher fitted values. Because, I'm dealing with count data, I'm thinking that this might be due to overdispersion. Is there a way to account for overdispersion in any of the packages MGCV or GAM?

Hi All My C++/linux program uses Rf_initEmbeddedR to start R and then calls some R functions. Now I try to port it to Windows. Give the fact that Rf_initEmbeddedR is missing in Windows, I try to use the implmentation in Rserve by Simon Urbanek. When I build in MS Visual Studio, I get the following linking error error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp__putenv referenced in function

Hi! I am pleased to announce the availability of libgcrypt version 1.1.11. Libgcrypt is a general purpose cryptographic library based on the code from GnuPG and licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License. It provides functions for all cryptograhic building blocks: symmetric ciphers (AES,DES,Blowfish,CAST5,Twofish,Arcfour), hash algorithms (MD4, MD5, RIPE-MD160, SHA-1, TIGER-192), MACs

In an attempt to learn to use the rv package, I have been working through the examples in Jouni Kerman and Andrew Gelman's "Using Random Variables to Manipulate and Summarize Simulations in R" (July 4, 2007). I am using a Dell Precision 380n computer running Gentoo Linux and R 2.2.1 (the latest available through Gentoo's portage/emerge system). Everything worked well until I

There are some interesting comments re Paul Murrell's new book, R, & SAS on Andrew Gelman's blog: http://www.stat.columbia.edu/~cook/movabletype/archives/2005/04/a_new_book_on_r.html -- Tony Plate

Dear R users, I followed the instuctions on Dr. Gelman's web to install all of documents that bugs.R needs, but when I try to run the school example that the web posted in R, I got an error: couldn't find function "bugs", what's wrong? Thanks, Jia

Dear FreeBSD users, Slightly more than three years ago, I released FreeBSD Update, my first major contribution to FreeBSD. Since then, I have become a FreeBSD committer, joined the FreeBSD Security Team, released Portsnap, and become the FreeBSD Security Officer. However, as I have gone from being a graduate student at Oxford University -- busy writing my thesis -- to a researcher at Simon

Hi, I am trying to recreate the right graph on page 524 of Gelman's 2006 paper "Prior distributions for variance parameters in hierarchical models" in Bayesian Analysis, 3, 515-533. I am only interested, however, in recreating the portion of the graph for the overlain prior density for the half-Cauchy with scale 25 and not the posterior distribution. However, when I try:

Dear R-users, I am trying to use the following code to reproduce results from Prof. Gelman's book, but have the listed error for R2WinBUGS version (the openbugs version is good). I am using R-2.6.1 on windows XP, and all the R packages are most current ones. schools.bug can be found at http://www.stat.columbia.edu/~gelman/bugsR/runningbugs.html . Can anyone help me to figure out what's

Dear R users, I've found bugs.R : the functions for running WinBUGs from R that is writen by Dr. Andrew Gelman who is a professor from Columbia University. The bugs.R would be very useful for me, and I think many of you know it as well. I followed the instuctions on Dr. Gelman's web to install all of documents that bugs.R needs, but when I try to run the school example the web posted in
