similar to: Compiling errors for Matrix_0.995-5.tar.gz under XP

I'll address two issues. The first is today's error message and the other is change management for contributed packages on CRAN. TODAY'S ERROR MESSAGE I switched from the 0.995-1 versions of lme4 and Matrix to those referenced in the subject line this afternoon. Prior to using these packages on anything else, I applied them to code that 'worked' (provided numerical results

It is my understanding that Tcl/Tk does not come with the base installation of R under OS X ( http://www.sciviews.org/_rgui/projects/TclTk.html). Is there a simple way to explain how a user with limited tolerance for computer complexity can obtain and install Tcl/Tk for OS X? Thanks. Chuck Background: Roughly a third of my target audience uses OS X. I do not and I do not have access to a

1) In general, I would appreciate help in adding functions to the Rcmdr menu system. I've been able to modify the menus themselves and source test code but I can't get R functions to execute from the menu. My latest proof of concept code follows: Three lines added to "Rcmdr-menus.txt": menu junkMenu topMenu "" ""

My subject line refers to a thread from June 2005 where I found explanations from Uwe Ligges and Friedrich Leisch as to what is intended by the R citation recommended within the software. Forgive me if I missed some points within the thread but when I found myself circling through messages I had already read, I stopped trying to follow it. I understand and mostly agree with how the R citation is

It is frustrating to see the labels I want in the dimensions of a list but not be able to extract those labels into titles for plots generated from component objects. If someone could set me straight, I would appreciate it. For your amusement, I have provided an example of the Byzantine code I am currently using to avoid loops: # Simulate ANOVA type test data sex<-c(rep(1,8),rep(0,8))

I ran logistic regression models last week using glm (...,family=binomial) and got a set of results. Since then I have loaded the Epi package for ROC analysis. Now when I run those same models I get completely different results, with most being: Warning message: fitted probabilities numerically 0 or 1 occurred in: glm.fit(x = X, y = Y, weights = weights, start = start, etastart = etastart,

I and my students have been having an odd problem with this release, which is that packages are disappearing. After installation the package is found with the library command, but later in the same session or in a later session, the library command returns a not found error. Then later it is back. Happening on both Windows and OS X, mostly but not entirely with Bioconductor packages. David

Hello all, I noticed that both Windows and OS X version of R have a GUI (Rconsole). Is there a GUI for Linux? I'm running Debian on which the CLI for R works just fine. Regards, - Robert

If you found my subject heading to be confusing then I'm sure you'll enjoy the example I've included below. I find the apply type functions to be wonderful for avoiding loops but when I use them with existing functions, I end up using loops anyway to extract the vectors I want. I would appreciate it if someone could show me how to avoid these loops. Thanks. EXAMPLE:

Alternate title: How can I persuade my students that R is for them? Alternate title: Can R replace SAS, SPSS or Stata for clinicians? I am teaching introductory statistics to twelve physicians and two veterinarians who have enrolled in a Mentored Clinical Research Training Program. My course is the first in a sequence of three. We (the instructors of this sequence) chose to teach R rather than

R is included in Fedora Extras. You can skip downloading Extras and updating the packages on the CD by using: yum index | grep R and installing the half dozen or so individual packages that will be listed. The number of packages may be mildly annoying but if you install this way you will be notified of R updates along with all of your other security and application updates through the Red Hat

Dear all, I have a question on the dose-response estimation with clustered/ correlated binary data. I would like to estimate the hit rate for a certain test at various concentration levels. The test is used on 5 subjects, and each subject is tested 20 times. If we assume that the 100 samples are independent, the hit rate estimate is unbiased, but the variance is under-estimated. The other

I compiled R 2.1.0 under Windows XP SP2 as a preliminary to rebuilding a custom package for use with R 2.1.0. The compile completed successfully, and I was able to run demo(graphics) successfully. But make check and make check-recommended fail. > version _ platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch i386 os mingw32 system i386, mingw32 status major 2 minor 1.0 year 2005

Hi everyone, I am using linux/ppc and after porting llvm's jit for this architecture, I am currently trying to compile llvm-gcc on it. I have gcc 4.1.1 and use llvm-gcc from cvs. Compilation fails and the message is: gcc -O2 -DIN_GCC -DDEFAULT_TARGET_MACHINE=\"powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu\" -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -pedantic -Wno-long-long

Hi, I am sick of remembering things, when configuring and compiling, so I would like to help make the cvs configuring and building of llvm easier. Here are a set of empty files that produce broken f771,jc1 and cc1obj. At least the make does not break. Right now I am only compiling and linking in these two new files via shell scripts as a test. If you are interested, I can integrate this into the

Hello, I just updated from R 2.1.1 to R 2.3.1 (I also updated from Fedora 3 to Fedora 4 if that is of any importance). However, several packages (e.g. fields etc.) refuse to be installed. I get the following error message: [root at localhost R-files]# R CMD INSTALL fields_2.3.tar.gz * Installing *source* package 'fields' ... ** libs g77 -fpic -O2 -g -pipe -m32 -march=i386

Hello, I use Gentoo and I can't get R 2.0.1 to compile. I used the portage system, Gentoo's source package sytem, and after it uncompresses the source to R, it says that I don't have a fortran compiler. It told me to use f77 flag and re-emerge gcc, which I did with the f77 and fortran flags, but it still won't compile. Does anyone have any ideas? I suspect that gcc has changed

Dear all, I am analyzing some data that requires a mixed model. I have been reading Pinheiro and Bates' book, but cannot find the notation to fit the following model: Suppose I have the dataset below. Here I am fitting variable p as a fixed effect, variable h as a random effect and variable t as nested within h. I would like to include the variable j as well as an independent (non-nested)

Hi all I am not sure this question is better suitted for the R-devel or R-help, but here it goes anyway I am not a software developer but I have produced a personal set of functions that I would like now to combine in a package. I am finding this really hard to do only by following the manuals provided (the language is for software developers I guess which I am far to be). Even so I could

Working on a Red Hat (not Mandrake) Linux and trying to load my library I get (sorry, can't copy it all, working remotely) gcc -shared -o ..... /user/bin/ld: cannot find -lg2c Does anyone know what the g2c library iss, and if I can download and compile it for Red Hat (I definitely didn't mean to type f2c in the above) Thanks Jonathan
