Thank you Gabor. I tried to exhaust all troubleshooting solutions listed on the site you suggested prior to posting my question. Perhaps you could share what this error is stemming from. Interestingly, on another machine I have no issue with it when I run R 2.10, whereas when I try Ryacas with R

Read the troubleshooting section on the home page: http://ryacas.googlecode.com . Some common problems are that you did not install yacas itself (issue yacasInstall() command without args and it will do that for you) and that you are using the wrong version of the XML package. > library(Ryacas) L

You can only use those functions that Ryacas knows about or that Yacas 1.0.63 knows about: library(Ryacas) View(transtab) and ls("package:Ryacas") The Ryacas home page http://ryacas.googlecode.com has links to the yacas home page. Sometimes using the first few terms of the Taylor representatio

I'm tinkering around in Ryacas trying to find an easy way to get the first and second partial derivatives of mu and sigma from a normal distribution (actually a bitterly ugly likelihood but this example works for now). I've done all of the work in Mathematica, but I then need to manually write R

Don't think your settings are wrong. I guess yacas is not (yet?) Mathematica. Yacas (in a terminal) gives: In> Simplify(a*((1/(b + E) - b/(b + E)^2)/(b/(b + E))) - N * ((1/(b + E) - b/(b + E)^2)/(1 - (b/(b + E) Out> (a*b^5*E^2+5*a*b^4*E^3+10*a*b^3*E^4+10*a*b^2*E^5+5*a*b*E^6+a*E^7+ (-5)*b

There is either something wrong with either me or is Yacas/Ryacas doing odd things. See below I ask to simpify an expression and the there's output! If this is a simplification.. well.. Do you think there is something set wrong somewhere. Thanks. > library(Ryacas) Loading required package: XML >
