Dear Joshua,

first of all, thank you very much for reply. I hoped that someone who's
familiar with both S+ and R can reply to me, because I spent some hours to
looking for a solution.

If someone else would try, this is the SPLUS code and output, while below
there is the R code. I obtain the same x values, while y values are
differents for both examples.

Thank you very much.

Nicola
