 Subject: [R] Contributed Packages - Hmisc  survey
 
 Hello List,
 
 Could someone tell  why I can't install the Himsc and survey packages
 for R version 2.13.0 (2011-04-13)? What am I doing wrong here?
 
 Thanks,
 
 Pradip

I get a 502 Bad Gateway error when I try to go to that mirror.  Maybe it is 
down.  Have you tried another mirror?

The CRAN page on status of mirrors shows that watson.nci.nih.gov
hasn't been updating recently. It may well be down. Try
cran.us.r-project.org

 Folks:
 If you wanted to find out about what are the contributed packages and
 classify them, how would you go about it? For someone new like me, I would
 like to know what the possibilities are. When I click on install
 packages on my Windows version of R, it gives me a list but it is hard to
 figure out from that list what is the purpose of each package and to what
 class it belongs (for example, class of regular expressions).
 
 What is the equivalent of CPAN.org for Perl in R where you can browse Perl
 modules by category? Thanks.

CRAN is the R equivalent of a repository like CPAN.org:

  http://cran.r-project.org

And the task views section groups available packages by category:

  http://cran.r-project.org/web/views/

Hope this helps!
