[Rd] Task View on Numerical Analysis and Differential Equations

2012-03-08 Thread Hans W Borchers
I am wondering if it would be time to have a new Task View, this time for the subject of Numerical Analysis and Differential Equations. The list of packages possibly appearing in such a task view is already quite long and could, for example, include: Numerical Analysis and Linear Algebra Bessel

Hi, ok, thank you for clarifiying what you meant. You only referred to the reusage of the args, not of an already existing vector. So I overgenerealized your example. But when looking at your example, and how I would implement the cos() I doubt I would use copying the args before calculating the

First, I can confirm this problem exists today, and can now vaguely recall seeing it in previous version of R. sessionInfo() R version 2.14.1 (2011-12-22) Platform: x86_64-pc-mingw32/x64 (64-bit) There is a bigger problem with heatmap.2 in the gplots package. Using symm=TRUE with no other

I don't think that using in-place modification as a general property would make sense. In-place modification brings in side-effects and that would mean that the order of evaluation can change the result. To get reliable results, the order of evaluation should not be the reason for different
