Dear list-member, I am currently developing a package with S4 classes. The NAMESPACE and DESCRIPTION is printed below. Within this package I have set a method "residuals" for two classes. In version 2.8.1 these two are reported whereas in R-Devel (2009-01-28 r47766). What have I missed? What has changed and how can I rectify the issue? Your help and pointers are welcome. For 2.8.1:

Dear list-subscriber, in the process of writing a general code snippet to extract coefficients in an expression (in the example below: 0.5 and -0.7), I stumbled over the following peculiar (at least peculiar to me:-) ) sorting behaviour of the function all.names(): > expr1 <- expression(x3 = 0.5 * x1 - 0.7 * x2) > all.names(expr1) [1] "-" "*" "x1"

Dear useR! an updated version of package 'vars' has been shipped to CRAN lately.

Dear list subscriber, I am quite puzzled by the behaviour of processing Sweave files within an R session, i.e. Sweave("foo.Rnw") versus R CMD Sweave foo.Rnw In the former the environmental variable 'SWEAVE_STYLEPATH_DEFAULT = TRUE' is obeyed (this is set in etc/Renviron.site as well as under the users home directory in .Renviron). That is the hard-coded path to Sweave.sty is

Dear all, I have a question. How to get the standard errors of alpha and beta when using "ca.jo" to test cointergration? In the paper by Bernhard Pfaff and Kronberg im Taunus “VAR, SVAR and SVEC Models: Implementation Within R Package” pp.24-25. The standard errors are listed on the table 5 following the code: R> vecm.r1 <- cajorls(vecm, r = 1) I tried this in my Mac R, but

Dear list subscriber (R-Core), there is a minor typo in the Windows specific NEWS for R 2.9.0: http://cran.at.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/CHANGES.R-2.9.0 There is no function 'memory.limits() but memory.limit() (see below). Secondly, I am kind of irritated by the function's behaviour. It returns an Error, but as it seems the memory limit is set according to the numeric value for

Dear list subscriber, suppose, I do have a minimal Sweave file 'test.Rnw': \documentclass{article} \begin{document} <<printx>>= x @ \end{document} Within R, I define the following function: f <- function(x){ Sweave("test.Rnw") } The call: f(x = 1:10) results in the following error message: > f(x = 1:10) Writing to file test.tex Processing code chunks

Let me firstly thank the R Core Team for their tremendous efforts in providing R 1.8.0. My following comment should therefore be understood as an "fyi-only". I source compiled R 1.8.0 for windows with ATLAS (source compiled, too). Everything works fine and R is running flawlessly! However, running "make check" stops during processing "internet.R". I checked the

Who was speaking about non-linear models in the first place??? The Klein-Model(s) and pretty much all simultaneous equation models encountered in macro-econometrics are linear and/or can contain linear approximations to non-linear relationships, e.g., production functions of the Cobb-Douglas type.

Dear R-list subscriber, is it possible that the omegahat-site is down? I was looking for package 'RDCOMClient', but could not establish a connection. In case somebody has the latest binary zip-file for Windows, would she/he mind to send it directly to my emaim adress stated in the signature? Many thanks, and sorry for bothering/misusing R-help in this instance. Best, Bernhard Dr.

Dear R-Devel subscriber, I encountered the following problem for tex-formatted table with xtable(). Suppose I do want the following matrix as a table in LaTeX: library(xtable) a11 <- "\\color{green}\\textbf{big green}" a21 <- "\\color{red}\\textbf{big red}" a12 <- "\\color{green}green" a22 <- "\\color{red}red" A <- matrix(c(a11, a21, a12,

Hi you all, I have couple of questions regarding how to use the vars package (the vector autoregression model) to find co-relation/ impact between multiple time series. I am not majoring in economic, I just want to use vars to check how those time series I had impacting each other. I also hope this post can give those non-economic majors a step by step guide on how to start using the vars

Frances, I would not advise Gauss-Seidel for non linear models. Can be quite tricky, slow and diverge. You can write your model as a non linear system of equations and use one of the nonlinear solvers. See the section "Root Finding" in the task view NumericalMathematics suggesting three packages (BB, nleqslv and ktsolve). These package are certainly able to handle medium sized models.

hello, I have been trying to use the predict function in the vars package to forecast from a seasonal VAR model. The following code sample illustrates what I am trying to do and the error that I get when trying to do it. I run the following code, that results in the following error: data(Canada) endoC <- Canada[1:72,1:3] exoC <- Canada[1:72,4] var.2c <- VAR(endoC, p = 2,
