Re: [Rd] Fixed BLAS tests for external BLAS library

In practical terms, failing tests are not preventing anyone from using an optimized BLAS/LAPACK implementation they trust. Building R with dynamically linked BLAS on Unix is supported, documented and easy for anyone who builds R from source. It is also how Debian/Ubuntu R packages are built

Re: [Rd] R CMD check warning about compiler warning flags

I repeat it for all the reason I gave to Duncan on a personal E-mail, It is a lot of text, and I might be wrong, but I attach it in case it is useful: A) I feel Version Control (SVN) is great when there is a little group of people maintaining the code (RCore ~ 20); but Git could allow a bigger

Thank you Mark, this is what I was looking for. On Sunday I will read again in detail previous discussion's facts, and attach the pros and cons here, so that they remain for the future, and the topic can be closed. Juan El 4 ene. 2018 11:06 a. m., "Mark van der Loo"

Re: [Rd] silent recycling in logical indexing

I have never used this construct. However, part of my job is seeing how well CRAN packages work in our reimplementation of the R language and I am continually surprised by the inventiveness of package writers. Bill Dunlap TIBCO Software wdunlap tibco.com On Thu, Jan 4, 2018 at 1:44 PM, Ben

Re: [Rd] silent recycling in logical indexing

Hmm. Chuck: I don't see how this example represents incomplete/incommensurate recycling. Doesn't TRUE replicate from length-1 to length-3 in this case (mat[c(TRUE,FALSE),2] would be an example of incomplete recycling)? William: clever, but maybe too clever unless you really need the speed? (The

Re: [Rd] silent recycling in logical indexing

One use case is when you want to extract every third item, starting with the second, of an arbitrary vector with x[c(FALSE, TRUE, FALSE)] instead of x[seq_along(x) %% 3 == 2] Bill Dunlap TIBCO Software wdunlap tibco.com On Thu, Jan 4, 2018 at 11:56 AM, Ben Bolker

Re: [Rd] Fixed BLAS tests for external BLAS library

Hi Tomas, Thanks for your reply. I find your response curious, however. Surely the identical() test is simply incorrect when catering for possibly different BLAS implementations? Or is it the case that conformant BLAS implementations all produce bit-identical results, which seems unlikely?

[Rd] silent recycling in logical indexing

Sorry if this has been covered here somewhere in the past, but ... Does anyone know why logical vectors are *silently* recycled, even when they are incommensurate lengths, when doing logical indexing? This is as documented: For ‘[’-indexing only: ‘i’, ‘j’, ‘...’ can be logical

Either provide precomputed results somewhere for the computaional intensive parts or, if the former is not feasible, ask the CRAN team to special case you package so that vignettes are not executed on CRAN. Best, Uwe Ligges On 04.01.2018 09:29, Jernej Jevšenak wrote: Hello all, I invested

Hi Kevin, I have your package reset to this commit e3a8d2122a65305c478276e538faace277ea9ed6. Please check. You will need to overlay all the commits including the new release on top of this (RELEASE_3_6). If you have any questions further on this, please ask before pushing to Bioconductor.
