Hi R-users, Recently, I use maxNR function to find maximizer. I have error appears as follows Error in maxNRCompute(fn = fn, grad = grad, hess = hess, start = start, : NA in the initial gradient My code is mu=2 s=1 n=300 library(maxLik) set.seed(1004) x<-rcauchy(n,mu,s) loglik<-function(mu) { log(prod(dcauchy(x,mu,s))) } maxNR(loglik,start=median(x))$estimate Does anyone know how

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:

There is a problem with `rpois'. It does seem to take care about the order of the arguments. This is an example: > rpois(n=1,lambda=2) [1] 3 > rpois(lambda=2,n=1) [1] 2 0 It obviously uses the first argument as the number of samples to be drawn, which is wrong. I used Version 0.49 Beta (April 23, 1997). Fredrik

Full_Name: Ray Kiddy Version: R 2.5.0 GUI 1.19 (4308) OS: Mac OS X 10.4.9 Submission from: (NULL) (71.139.33.60) There is no section in the FAQ equivalent to "Using R". The "R Basics" is too basic. I would say it addresses "meta-R" questions, such as installing. I had a FAQ that I would think would be a basic "Using R" question, namely: "How does

(1) ...need to speed up a monte-carlo sampling...any suggestions about how I can get R to use all 8 cores of a mac pro would be most useful and very appreciated...

Hello all... I am just starting to teach myself Bayesian methods, and am interested in learning how to use UMacs. I've read the documentation, but the single example is a bit over my head at the level I am at right now. I was wondering if anyone has any simple examples they'd like to share. I've successfully done a couple of simple gibbs examples, but have had a hard time

Hi! I have just downloaded the R-0.60.1 sources and have problems compiling R on a Sun Ultra 1 running Solaris 2.6 and gcc 2.7.2.1. I have not been able to find to find any compiling hints in the documentation or the FAQ. After ./configure I use make and get the output below. Any hints are welcome. I am not on the list, so please answer me directly too. Best regards Jens --- Jens Lund

Hi, I'd like to know if there's anything in R that could help me do that. Let's suppose I have a density function of a random variable, for example f(x) = (x^3)/4 0 < x < 2 and I would like to simulate it. For the common distributions (exponencial, gamma, cauchy) there are the r-functions (rgamma, rexp, runif, rcauchy, and so on).. But when the variable I want to simulate is not

Hi all, I'm trying to superimpose a rchisq density line over a histogram with something like: hist(alnlength) lines(density(rchisq(length(alnlength), 4)),col="red") But the rchisq line won't appear anywhere, Anyone knows what I am missing here? Thanks in advance, Albert.

Hi again ! Thanks for the info on updating the config.site file which I have done. I have also added -lm in the Makeconf manually because this is needed explicitly for DEC cc. However, there are still a few problems when linking some of the files as you can see from the enclosed log.

Folks, I wonder if anything could be said about the distribution of a random variate x, where x = N(0,1)/N(0,1) Obviously x is pathological because it could be 0/0. If we exclude this point, so the set is {x/(0/0)}, does x have a well defined distribution? or does it exist a distribution that approximates x. (The case could be generalized of course to N(mu1, sigma1)/N(mu2, sigma2) and one

Hi, Just downloaded the R-0.62.4 of R and tried to install it. With the standard procedure : ./configure make At the end of the compilation I got the following message : ld: ../lib/libunix.a(system.o): main: multiply defined fort: Severe: Failed while trying to link. *** Exit 1 Stop. *** Exit 1 Stop. *** Exit 1 Stop. *** Exit 1 Stop. I attach the printout after the ./configure and make

Hi! This is going to be a real newbie question, but I can't figure it out. I'm trying to plot densities of various functions of chi-square. A simple chi-square plot I can do with dchisq(). But e.g. chi.sq/degrees of freedom I only know how to do using density(rchisq()/df). For example: plot(1, type="n", xlab="", ylab="", xlim=c(0,2), ylim=c(0,7)) for (i
