Yes. It is a special case.
But it was germane to the topic, particularly the imposition of a part

Here is what I would do in R to do a linear model with observations
consisting of input variables x1 ... x3 and target variable y:
m <- lm(y ~ x1 + x2 + x3, data)
The first argument lets me supply the form of the regression. I could have
regressed on log(x3), for instance, or used x1*x2 + x

I may have misunderstood our conversation (and therefore probably sounded a
bit incoherent), but I was talking about weights on observations which may
or may not be what you are talking about here.
Also, if you *are* talking about the same thing and the vector is a vector
of residuals suc
I have just checked in the first changes as discussed on the list.
The changes are merely code moved from one package to another. The new
packages are optimization.direct, optimization.general,
optimization.linear (empty for now) and optimization.univariate. The
removed packages are analysis.minim
