Hi all,
I'm having some troubles with the Quantreg package. I am using R version 2.10.0, and have downloaded the most recent version of Quantreg (4.44) and SparseM (0.83 - required package). However, when I try to run an analysis (e.g. fit1<-rq(y~x, tau=0.5)) I get an error message saying that the function "rq" could not be found. I get the same message when I try to search for any of the other functions that should be in the package (e.g. help(anova.rq)). I used this package last year and still have the old versions of both quantreg and SparseM saved on my machine. When I load these older packages and attempt an analysis (which, incidentally, worked fine last February) I get the same error messages as I do with the new versions. The only think I have changed since last February is the version of R I am using - is there any reason why quantreg wouldn't work in version 2.10.0? I'm not very experienced with R so I'm struggling to work out what may be going wrong - does anyone have any suggestions!?
