On the local documentation page for Binomial, i.e. http://127.0.0.1:xxxx/library/stats/html/Binomial.html The link to Catherine Loader's paper "Catherine Loader (2000). *Fast and Accurate Computation of Binomial Probabilities*; available from http://www.herine.net/stat/software/dbinom.html." appears to be broken. Kind regards, Seán [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I've been trying, without success to find a copy of the paper, by Catherine Loader, that describes the algorithn underlying the rbinom() and associated functions. The title is "Fast and Accurate Computation of Binomial Probabilities." All of the links to the paper that I've seen (including in the R docs) lead nowhere (i.e. are 404). I've sent Dr. Loader several emails,

In principle a good idea, but I'm not sure the whereabouts of Catherine Loader are known at this point. Last peeps from her on the net seem to be about a decade old. .pd > On 18 May 2020, at 10:31 , Abby Spurdle <spurdle.a at gmail.com> wrote: > > This has come up before. > > Here's the last time: > https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2019-March/077478.html

What about using the Wayback Machine archive ? The web archive should be more stable than other links which also might disappear in the future. E.g. https://web.archive.org/web/20070610002602/http://www.herine.net/stat/software/dbinom.html , which also links to an archived copy of the PDF.

FWIW the link from ?dbinom to the Loader paper on Binomials is broken but the paper seems to be available here: https://octave.1599824.n4.nabble.com/attachment/3829107/0/loader2000Fast.pdf Roger Koenker r.koenker at ucl.ac.uk<mailto:r.koenker at ucl.ac.uk> Honorary Professor of Economics Department of Economics, UCL Emeritus Professor of Economics and Statistics, UIUC [[alternative

Hi Folks, The recent correspondence about "strange fisher.test result", and especially Peter Dalgaard's reply on Tue 03 April 2007 (which I want to investigate further) led me to take a close look at the code for binom.test(). I now have a query! The code for the two-sided case computes the p-value as follows: if (p == 0) (x == 0) else if (p == 1) (x == n)

I have just started using the SEM package in R, so I'm not sure I'm doing everything right, but I keep getting an error concerning startvalues and I can't figure out how to fix it. Is anyone willing to read over my code and help me out??? Please email me if you are willing to look at my code and I will send it to you. Thank you so much, and Happy New Year! cathy

Hello R people! How can one use a for loop (or something similar) in R? As I type in each line, I get syntax errors... I'm just confused how much to type in at each ">" prompt.

Hi all Is there any reason why the parameter i in a "for" loop ignores a value of zero? For example sim=c() p=.2 for(i in 0:5) {sim[i]=dbinom(i,5,p) } sim [1] 0.40960 0.20480 0.05120 0.00640 0.00032 In this example the quantile i= 0 was ignored since dbinom(0,5,p) [1] 0.32768 The same behaviour occurs if I use a while loop to perform the same calculation: sim=c() p=.2 i=0

This has come up before. Here's the last time: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2019-March/077478.html I guess my answer to the following the question... Perhaps we should ask permission to nail the thing down somewhere on r-project.org? ...would be, to reproduce it somewhere. And then update the link in the binom help file. Given that the article was previously available

The version of locfit on the web site mentioned apparently has been revised by Prof. Loader, and is newer than the CRAN version that I have been maintaining. If Prof. Loader is OK with it, I will take a look and see if I can get the new version into CRAN-conforming form and upload to CRAN. Meanwhile, make sure you're using the package from Prof. Loader's web page, instead of the one on

Hi Guy's I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction. dbinom(10,1,0.25) I am using dbinom(10,1,0.25) to calculate the probabilty of 10 judges choosing a certain brand x times. I was wondering how I would go about simulating 1000 trials of each x value ? regards Brendan -- View this message in context:

Dear all, Has anyone worked on coding for calculating Lyapunov Exponent for a time series data? or any package is available for computing Lyapunov? Please advice and many thanks in advance. Catherine X Wang

ok and how to turn it off ? Is there a how-to ? If i enable this parameters what about clients already connected ?

Getting rid of netbios does not mean you should not configure it. You "should" configure it. And even if you disable WINS, LLMNR is still running, so you gained.. .. Nothing with disabling WINS. Just in this case make sure your NETBIOS names obey the DNS rules and https://support.microsoft.com/nl-nl/help/909264/naming-conventions-in-active-directory-for-computers-domains-sites-and

Hi there, Are you able to assist us to configure two channels on icecast? We need to reconfigure icecast (our audio streaming server) to stream multiple "mount" points, to include the two additional streams that a digital radio app requires.

Dear people, I'm trying to do some analysis of a data using the models by Royle & Donazio in their fantastic book, particular the following function: http://www.mbr-pwrc.usgs.gov/pubanalysis/roylebook/panel4pt1.fn that applied to my data and in the console is as follows: > `desman.y` <- structure(c(3L,4L,3L,2L,1L), .Names = c("1", "2", "3",

Dear all, I downloaded samba3.0-alpha21 and followed each step in "ADS-HOWTO.txt". But mapping a network directory from a Windows client failed (step 4: Test your server setup). (Succeeded in other steps.... Including step 5) Only local users in the samba server can access the share folder. (Please refer to the smb.conf listed below...) And "#kadmin -p administrator" fails
