Dear all, I am having difficulty interpreting the parameter estimates from the stablereg function. Specifically I am trying to keep things simple to start with by using stablereg to fit a normal distribution to a simulated data set from that distribution (in order to understand the way that stablereg reports parameter estimates). I cannot work out the scale on which the dispersion parameter (some

Hi everyone, when I use the two sample Kolmogorov¨CSmirnov ks2Test like this: x=read.table("e:/x.txt") y=rstable(1000,alpha,beta,gamma,delta) I alway get results as follows: Warning messages: 1: In ks.test(x = x, y = y, alternative = "two.sided") : cannot compute correct p-values with ties 2: In ks.test(x = x, y = y, exact = TRUE, alternative = "two.sided")

I got some R code that I don't understand. Question as comment in code //where is t comming from, what is phi inverse rAC <- function(name, n, d, theta){ #generic function for Archimedean copula simulation illegalpar <- switch(name, clayton = (theta < 0), gumbel = (theta < 1), frank = (theta < 0), BB9 = ((theta[1] < 1) | (theta[2] < 0)), GIG = ((theta[2] < 0) |

I have just uploaded the package "stable-0.1.tgz" to the contrib section of CRAN. It enables to compute the density ('dstable'), the distribution ('pstable'), the quantile ('qstable') and the hazard ('hstable') functions of a stable variate. 'stable.mode' computes the mode of a stable distribution. The procedure 'stableglm' also enables

Hello, I need a specific version of R installed for consistency reasons. I do the standard setup steps: echo "deb https://cran.ma.imperial.ac.uk/bin/linux/ubuntu trusty/" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys E084DAB9 sudo apt-get update And then a simple install call, which used to work just fine some time ago, tosses an

I have a R script that I call from python using rpy2. It uses dplyr, doBy, and ggplot2. The script has install.packages commands for these 3 packages. Even thought the packages are already installed it still downloads, builds, and installs them, which is very time consuming. Is there a way to have it only do the install if the package is not already installed? Also, I run in a docker container,

Dear Larry, Have a look at https://github.com/inbo/rstable That is a dockerfile with a stable version of R and a set of packages. Best regards, ir.

Hi guys Is there a way in R to simulate/generate random numbers from a negative skewed and fat tailed distribution ? I would like to simulate a set of (discrete) data.

Dear Krzysztof, I would suggest to have a look at Docker images. https://hub.docker.com/r/rocker/r-ver/ provides images for different versions of R. You could even create your own image with all the packages and other dependencies that you need. See e.g. our image at https://hub.docker.com/r/inbobmk/rstable/ Best regards, ir.

I have received three distinct (non-)bug reports where someone claimed a recent package of mine was broken ... simply because the macOS binary was not there. Is there something wrong with the cronjob providing the indices? Why is it pointing people to binaries that do not exist? Concretely, file https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/macosx/el-capitan/contrib/3.4/PACKAGES contains Package:
