Hello, R friends
My student unearthed this quirk that might interest you.
I wondered if this might be a bug in the R interpreter. If not a bug,
it certainly stands as a good example of the dangers of floating point
numbers in computing.
What do you think?

I have done this a lot. Would you mind installing my pkg rockchalk and then
run example(plotSlope) and example(plotCurve)? If the output is close to
what you want, you can adjust my code. The vignette explains.

2. Run that through predict

Can you point me at any packages that allow users to write a
formula with coefficients?
I want to write a data simulator that has a matrix X with lots

by entering a formula that uses some of the variables, allowing

lm.beta, it actually standardizes variables and runs regression. lm.beta

I have been making simple functions to display regressions in a new
package called "rockchalk". For 3d illustrations, my functions use
persp, and I've grown to like working with it. As an example of the
kind of things I like to do, you might consult my lecture on
multicollinearity, which is by fa
including
L'Ecuyer streams.
The puzzle is this comment in ?Random: "‘set.seed’ is the recommended
way to specify seeds."
What I did not understand before, and can't make sense of now, is that
set.seed does not "re-set" a saved seed. Here's my working example:

I'm running Debian Linux with R-2.14.1. As far as I can tell, the R
packages came from Debian's testing "wheezy" repository. I would like
to know if users on other types of systems see the same problem. If
no, then, obviously, it is a De

Just for the record, following Bill Dunlap's advice, I think this is
the best answer to the question as originally posed is.
myfun <- function(vec, i=stop("'i' must be supplied")){
vec[i]
}

I want to write an R help example that throws up 2 graphs in separate
windows, for comparison. In Linux I plot one, then run
x11()
to spawn a new on-screen device.
Is there some generic equivalent so I can write an example that will
work for Windows and Mac users as well?
If there is none, don'

Greetings:
rockchalk is a collection of functions to facilitate presentation of regression
models.
It includes some functions that I have been circulating for quite some time
(such as
"outreg") as well as several others. The main aim is to allow people who do not
understand very much R to surviv

A user question today has me stumped. Can you advise me, please?
User wants a matrix that has some numbers, some variables, possibly
even some function names. So that has to be a character matrix.
Consider:
> BM <- matrix("0.1", 5, 5)
Use data.entry(BM) or similar to set some to more abstract
Henrik's proposal works well, so far. Thanks very much. I could not
