Re: [R] nls for R version 3.3.2

[J C Nash]

You may also want to use tools that are more robust.

Package nlmrt uses analytic Jacobian where possible and a Marquardt solver.

Package minpack.lm uses a Marquardt solver, but the forward difference 
derivatives of
nls() for its Jacobian.

alpha level work in https://r-forge.r-project.org/R/?group_id=395 package nlsr 
is aimed at cleaning up some of the work
in nlmrt and extending its capabilities.

I don't see an `nls` package on CRAN. Perhaps it has been replaced by nls2. On 
the other hand, you may be looking for the functions `nls` in the stats 
package. (Hard to tell from the available information.)

packageDescription('nls2')

Package: nls2
Version: 0.2
Date: 2013-03-07
Title: Non-linear regression with brute force
Author: G. Grothendieck
Maintainer: G. Grothendieck 
Description: Adds brute force and multiple starting values to nls.
Depends: proto
Suggests: nlstools
License: GPL-2

Indeed you did something wrong.
nls is part of the stats package in R.
Just do ?nls to see the help.

[R] nls for R version 3.3.2

[Troels Ring]

Dear friends - updated to R 3.3.2 - tried to install nls - got this sad 
response


package ‘nls’ is not available (as a binary package for R version 3.3.2)

I'm on windows 7

Did I do something wrong? Will a binary appear eventually? Would I have 
to make it myself?


Best wishes
