Thanks a lot for your help.
But I am getting that error message when I am trying to
load my function. Then I can't use anything to minimise it.
Is there anything I can do to increase R's
capacity for loading very long functions?
Many thanks.
Marcel
Have you considered "optim" in library(MASS)? "optim" will optionally
output the hessian, which can be used to obtain confidence intervals in
many cases.
hope this helps. spencer graves

Dear R users,
I am trying to minimise a function using "nlm".
I am getting the following error message: "Error: function is too long to
keep source"
The function is really very long (about 100 A4 pages).
Is there anything I could do to solve this problem?
At the moment I am using "nlmin" in S-Plus with no problems but I'd prefer
to use R.
Thank you very much in advance.
Regards.
Marcel
