[Rd] Error in Rd[[which]] : subscript out of bounds

me to what a minimal .Rd file has in it. The file is already pretty minimal, so it's possible I've already gone to small and that is the reason for the error. Best, Paul Bailey __ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo

Re: [Rd] Error in Rd[[which]] : subscript out of bounds

, should have said this is in 2.14.0. Using traceback() as you suggested solved this problem for me, thanks. this made it pretty obvious: 2: checkUnique(\\description) looks like I typed description when I wanted details. Thanks! Best, Paul Bailey __ R

Re: [Rd] constrained optimization

, the BFGS type papers tend to be long on the BFGS explanations and short on the line search explanations. If someone pointed me to a good line search paper that uses the Wolfe conditions...

[Rd] pass-by-reference

I'm working with a large object that I want to modify slightly in a function. Pass-by-reference would make a lot of sense, but I don't know how to do it. I've searched this archive and thought that I can do something like f - function(x) { v1 - list(a=x,b=3) g(x) v1 } g - function(x) {
