Re: [R] Unexpected nls behaviour: Solved

Hi Everyone, I'd omitted the non-optional 'parameters' argument to selfStart. Making this change to SSbatch gives the same (successful) result from the two calls to nls. SSbatch<-selfStart( model=function(Batch, Coeffs) { Coeffs[Batch] } ,initial=function(mCall, data, LHS) { # Estimate coeffic

Hi everyone, I thought that for a selfStart function, these two should be exactly equivalent > nls(Aform, DF) > nls(Aform, DF, start=getInitial(Aform, DF)) but in this example that is not the case in R (although it is in S-plus V6.2) -- SSbatch<-selfStart( model=funct
