It behaves as per documentation.
" Using diag(x) can have unexpected effects if x is a vector that could be of
length one. Use diag(x, nrow = length(x)) for consistent behavior."

Dear list
A strange bug in the psych package is due to the behavior of the diag function:
It gives the expected values for 1, a vector (-1,1), but not for -1
Is this a known feature?
It is pretty clearly documented:
"diag has four distinct usag
I would say it is a mis-feature. If the 'x' argument of diag() is a
vector of length 1, then it creates an identity matrix of that size,
instead of creating a 1x1 matrix with the given value:
❯ diag(3)
[,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,]100
[2,]010
[3,]001
Of course this

Hello,
I have found what I believe to be a bug in the Linux version of the Rscript
binary.
Under Windows (official 64-bit 3.5.1 R distribution running on an up-to-date
Win10), I can do the following (e.g. under powershell):
PS H:\Users\Cesko> Rscript
Same on Mac:
$ Rscript -e 'ls()
> ls()'
ARGUMENT 'ls()' __ignored__
character(0)
as well as using “\n” as a line separator:
$ Rscript -e 'ls()\nls()'
ARGUMENT 'ls()' __ignored__
character(0)
