Re: [Rd] [EXTERNAL] Adding RtangleRuncode and RtangleFinish to exports of utils

2020-07-08 Thread Weigand, Stephen D. via R-devel
Hi, For what it's worth, I would like to second this. I have a small Sweave driver (https://r-forge.r-project.org/R/?group_id=1857) that uses: RtangleRtf <- function(){ list(setup = RtangleSetup, runcode = utils:::RtangleRuncode, # <--- writedoc = RtangleWritedoc,

[Rd] What should dnorm(0, 0, -Inf) return?

2019-12-07 Thread Weigand, Stephen D. via R-devel
Hi, Apropos of a recent Inf question, I've previously wondered if dnorm "does the right thing" with dnorm(0, 0, -Inf) which gives zero. Should that be zero or NaN (or NA)? The help says "'sd < 0' is an error and returns 'NaN'" and since -Inf < 0 is TRUE, then... is this a bug? Thank you, S

[Rd] Very slow plot rendering with X11 on CentOS 5.5

2010-09-28 Thread Weigand, Stephen D.
I am connecting from a PC to a Linux system running CentOS release 5.5 (Final) and it is extremely slow to render plots to the X11 device. This is not R's fault but I wonder if anyone can offer guidance so I can help the system administrators address the problem. I can connect to the Linux se

2008-06-18 Thread Weigand, Stephen D.
I love the new tiff(), jpeg(), and png() in R 2.7.0 but found an issue that I didn't see reported. When specifying 'units = "in"' but forgetting to change the default height and width (so the figure is unintentionally going to be 480 inches by 480 inches) I run into problems. Here's the reproduc
