Dear list, As can be seen below, adding a NA to the y values in a call to isoreg results in a segfault.
ir4 <- isoreg(1:10, y4 <- c(5, 9, 1:2, 5:8, NA, 8)) Adding missing values to the x values, on the contrary, gives an error, but maybe the error message could be tailored to this particular situation. y <- c(5, 9, 1:2, 5:8, 3, 8) x <- c(1:9, NA) isoreg(x, y) ## error message: Error in if (!isOrd) { : missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed Please find below a (temporary) patch (against Revision 43692) for both the R source and the help file.
