Dear David, I can think of two strategies for dealing with this problem: > > Strategy 1: Some code like this: > if (det(X) < epsilon) { > warning("Near singular matrix") > return(NULL) > } > return(solve(X))
This solution is probably the easiest one to take, but to match solve.default, the test should be if (rcond(X) < .Machine$double.eps) Catching that case should avoid the error. I hope this helps.
