Hi all,
I've been working on improving R's optim() command, which does general purpose
unconstrained optimization. Obviously, this is important for many statistics
computations, such as maximum likelihood, method of moments, etc. I have
focused my efforts of the BFGS method, mainly because it be

Dear princely R developers to whom I owe so much of my daily productivity
level,
I am wondering how indexing by row and column names are implemented. That
is, when I have a matrix with named rows (or columns) and I then index into
that matrix using the string names (rather than integers), how do

The way that you install Linux on a PS3 it becomes a dual-boot
machine. You have to reboot to the original operatin
I've been working off-and-on for a few months on devising some patches to
R to make it much happier with a Cell processor; to be honest I've not
had much time to work at it lately.
Douglas is right that it is mostly a PPC64 sort of architecture; taking
real advantage of the hardware is going
P.S. A site with instructions for installing Ubuntu on the PS3 is
psubuntu.com or google "PS3 Ubuntu" to get the community pages
documentation.
It is a good idea to have an Ethernet connection so that once you
