Dear Heikki, I generally don't save the R workspace, but I did try this several times following your message (on a Win 2000 system using the patched version of R 1.9.0) and was unable to duplicate the error. Are you able to produce the error using the tcltk package without Rcmdr? Perhaps someone

[Rd] plot functions, formula interfaces and NAs

2004-05-03 Thread Prof Brian Ripley
As we have seen from PR#6846, we don't document much what happens to NAs in plot functions. The formula interfaces do seem to be a bit of a mess, as they call model.frame and so some (but only some) of them pick up the options() setting of na.action. This means that for example pairs(~ x +y + z)

Thanks for your comments. I understand this is probably the correct behavior for a formula method, but I also think that it is not what many people expect, and the note about NA behavior did not seem to help me. Thus, I appreciate your adding the na.action. Thanks, R. On Monday 03 May 2004 1

I don't think this is a bug in *R*, especially as you appear to be using the unreleased gcc 3.4! Hint: there needs to be a dynamic library for libg2c, not a static one. If there is not, that's a g77 on MacOS X problem, which at one time (gcc 3.1) we had to overcome by using vecLib. See the R-adm

Re: [Rd] boxplot.formula with missing values (PR#6846)

2004-05-03 Thread Prof Brian Ripley
I think this *is* the correct behaviour for a formula method. The problem I see is that boxplot.formula does not have an na.action argument and so you may not have realised that na.action=na.omit is the default. Note that subset= will `remove the same rows from all columns', too. It really is not

If an array has missing values in different rows, plotting using the formul= a=20 interface can produce errors. Example: fake.data <- matrix(rep(-100:100, 4), ncol =3D 4) par(mfrow =3D c(1,2)) boxplot(fake.data ~ col(fake.data)) abline(h =3D 0, lty =3D 2) boxplot(as.data.fram
