Hello,
I'm jumping a bit late on this, but what about something like:
index?survival
or more generally
foo?bar
with the ability for the user/package to define what the combination
"foo"/"bar" means. At the moment, the way "package?survival" is handled
is to :

Ravi,
There has been a lot of chatter about this, and people don't seem to be
reading carefully. Perhaps this will help clarify things.
The problem appears to be that R was evaluating x^2 not as multiplication
x*x, but as x^2.0=exp(2.0*log(x)), using standard C functions for the
complex log and

Dear Martin,
I definitely do not agree with this. Consider your own proposal of
writing the Rosenbrock function:
rosen2 <- function(x) {
I checked, and both octave and yorick use multiplication for z^i where
i is an integer, leading to better accuracy. Octave uses an integer
power if it's stored as a double if it's close enough to an integer.

Dear Ravi,
I suspect that, in general, you may be facing the limitations of machine
accuracy (more precisely, IEEE 754 arithmetics on [64-bit] doubles) in
your application. This is not a problem of R itself, but rather a
problem of standard arithmetics provided by underlying C compilers/CPUs.
