Dear Peter, many thanks for your swift reply and the enlightenment; much appreciated. I have cc'ed Achim as the package maintainer of zoo, in case this thread should have slipt his notice. Just curious, Achim, will there be a rank.zoo() function in a future release of your package? Best,

xtfrm.zoo has been added to the development version of zoo and should address this. It is available on R-Forge or in the meantime you can just add this line to your code: xtfrm.zoo - coredata On Wed, Oct 22, 2008 at 8:49 AM, Peter Dalgaard [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Pfaff, Bernhard Dr. wrote:

Yes, I noticed that but rank is not generic. An xtfrm.zoo method has been added to zoo on R-Forge but rank still fails: R.version.string [1] R version 2.8.0 Patched (2008-10-21 r46766) packageDescription(zoo)$Version [1] 1.5-3 library(zoo) # next line adds xtfrm zoo method xtfrm.zoo -

And one other point. z - zoo(1:4) .gt(z, 1, 2) fails because z[1] and z[2] are at different time points so z[1] == z[2] is logical(0) because when zoo compares objects it aligns them first. On Wed, Oct 22, 2008 at 2:19 PM, Gabor Grothendieck [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Yes, I noticed that

It seems unlikely that the functionality of this program can be separated from the R-packages upon which it relies, thus making them one work subject to GPL. Does anyone have any experience with this software/company? Any thoughts? They're not distributing R itself: You must have R on your

I don't think its hopeless. order works ok provided the underlying class defines an xtfrm method. I think rank should follow that route too. Its arguably the inconsistency between rank and order (order but not the rank uses xtfrm) that causes the inconsistent behavior between the two. If rank
