You have to understand the gR project for that. It started from a number of completely separate pieces of software within the general field of graphical models, and tried to bring people together and make the existing pieces of software accessible from R. Given that the active core of the group was really just a handful of people with limited R programming experience (much of the original code was written in dialects of Pascal/Delphi), the project must be said to have had some success. However, the most pronounced effect has been to bring those old codes out in the open, but seamless integration would be quite far into the horizon. ______________________________________________ [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.
