You can find out what at least some of these things mean by reading the help file. On your prior run the first two gave a response of 1 which, as the help file explains in the Value section, means they failed. On this one it seems the tests did not match the target because they were tested on a different version of R than the tests were prepared for. I suggest you just forget about these tests. I don't think there is anything wrong with your installation. By the way, the most recent version of R is R-2.15.2 and you might want to use that. -- Statistics & Software Consulting GKX Group, GKX Associates Inc. tel: 1-877-GKX-GROUP email: ggrothendieck at gmail.com ______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
