Take a look at: http://sepwww.stanford.edu/software/ratfor.html and in particular the link there to the original paper by Brian Kernighan describing ratfor; it is only 14 pages, but it is a model of clarity of exposition and design.
I wouldn't worry too much about the makefile -- it probably knows exactly what to do with ratfor provided you have the ratfor preprocessor available from the above link, and the rest of the tools to build from source. url: www.econ.uiuc.edu/~roger Roger Koenker email [EMAIL PROTECTED] Department of Economics vox: 217-333-4558 University of Illinois fax: 217-244-6678 Champaign, IL 61820 On Jun 6, 2007, at 4:42 PM, Kevin C Packard wrote: > I'm testing some different formulations of pairwise interaction > point processes > in Spatstat (version 1.11-6) using R 2.5.0 on a Windows platform > and I wish to > simulate them using the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm implemented > with Spatstat. > Spatstat utilizes Fortran77 code with the preprocessor RatFor to do > the > Metropolis-Hastings MCMC, but the Makefile is more complicated than > any I have > worked with. > Any suggestions on how I could get started working with the Fortran > code in > conjunction with RatFor is appreciated. > > Sincerely, > Kevin > > Kevin Packard > Department of Forestry, PhD student > Department of Statistics, MS student > Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University > Blacksburg, Virginia, USA > > ______________________________________________ > [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. ______________________________________________ [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.
