[Rd] `var' broken in 1.8.0 alpha (2003-09-15)

2003-09-16 Thread Torsten Hothorn
Hi, in last nights alpha version, `var' is broken: R var(rnorm(100)) Error in var(rnorm(100)) : 3 arguments passed to cov which requires 4. which I suspect is due to recent changes to `cov'. The same is true for R cov(rnorm(100), rnorm(100)) Error in cov(rnorm(100), rnorm(100)) : 3 arguments

Yes these two are related, but the e-mail subject is wrong: It's *your* fault because you must have unpacked the new version on top of an older one. The official alpha version (Snapshots from here, or rsync) do not have your problem: Before a few days ago, there were files

Did you make sure that you have require(methods) early in your R sources for the package? No, and that was exactly the problem (although specifically I put the 'require(methods)' into the R_PROFILE.R file). I was under the impression that methods was always loaded by default when R started up

It's not been a valid assumption ever (or as long as I can recall). The only thing you can assume in base. We try to be careful in the R tarball, but things slip past. BDR On Tue, 16 Sep 2003, Jeff Gentry wrote: Did you make sure that you have require(methods) early in your R sources

[Rd] hclust: median, centroid (PR#4195)

There seems to be a bug in hclust (package mva) for clustering methods 'median' and 'centroid'. I have written a clustering program in C and discovered that the results for 'median' differ from those of hclust in R. I used a third program, written by someone else in Pascal, and that program

plot.hclust: Setting up a window for a dendrogram assumes the first link is the shortest and the last is the longest. This is not always the case when the clustering was done with hclust, method=median or method=centroid, and the dendrogram sometimes doesn't fit within the window. I propose the
