It seems that Eq (2) in the vignettes for the 'contrast' packages is
not correct. That is, the numerator on the right hand side should be
$c' \beta$ rather than $c' \lambda$, right? If I'm correct, could
somebody notice the author to fix it?
Do it yourself.
What do you mean? I have two questions. I assume you are answering my
second questions. Would you please make sure that your reply is
complete to avoid any confusions?
If you think there is an error, then you should contact the package
maintainer. Simple (and complete) as that.
If you don't want to check, then don't post with nonsense reply.
Its the advice that you could and _should_ have read in the Posting
Guide.
I'm not clear how my original post violate the posting guide
http://www.r-project.org/posting-guide.html. Would you please be
specific which item I violated?
Your use of "violated", not mine.
"For questions about functions in standard packages distributed with R (see
the FAQ Add-on packages in R), ask questions on R-help.
I asked the questions because I'm not sure if I am a hundred percent
correct. If I am wrong, then it is not a problem with the package.
Therefore, it is perfectly OK to ask the question on r-help.
Really? Where exactly is the loophole in 'If the question relates to a
contributed package ... try contacting the package maintainer first.'?
I don't see an addendum that states 'But if you are not 100% sure that
you are correct about your question then you should ask on R-help first,
because of course those people know WAY more about the package and its
contents than the maintainer, who is really just tangentially involved
with the package and probably couldn't clear up any misunderstandings
you may have.'
But I could be mistaken. I am not good at reading between the lines...
If the question relates to a contributed package , e.g., one downloaded from
CRAN, try contacting the package maintainer first. "
Have you tried contacting the contrast package maintainer?
