traceback() indicates that the prob= argument is a vector of complex numbers when doing the call minuslogl(attackR3_B = -0.262499999999999, Th3_B = 1.755625) > > For this function to run you need packages: bbmle and emdbook. > Testdata I pasted here > > N0 FR > 5 4 > 3 2 > 5 3 > 5 4 > 6 4 > 5 4 > 4 2 > 5 4 > 6 5 > 5 3 > 10 5 > 14 7 > 12 6 > 17 9 > 10 4 > 16 8 > 15 8 > 14 5 > 15 6 > 15 5 > 19 10 > 20 11 > 22 10 > 21 12 > 25 12 > 26 11 > 25 10 > 25 12 > 25 11 > 24 9 > 35 12 > 33 12 > 35 13 > 36 12 > 31 12 > 37 12 > 39 13 > 36 14 > 35 12 > 35 10 > 46 11 > 44 10 > 41 12 > 43 14 > 45 12 > 48 11 > 45 13 > 45 9 > 49 12 > 45 11 > 56 12 > 59 15 > 52 11 > 54 10 > 51 12 > 55 12 > 61 13 > 55 12 > 54 10 > 55 12 > > Kind regards, > Met vriendelijke groeten, > Joachim > > Don't waste paper!
