hh {HH} | R Documentation |
The pathnames for all the datasets and executable files in the online
files accompanying Heiberger and Holland (2004) are given relative to
the options()$HH.ROOT.DIR
directory.
hh(file)
file |
Character string giving the pathname of a file in the HH
online files relative to the options()$HH.ROOT.DIR directory.
file is the name exactly as specified in Heiberger and Holland
(2004).
The hh function resolves those names to the location where the
files are stored on your computer. |
The datasets and code listings in Heiberger and Holland (2004) are
all given paths relative to the beginning of the hh
directory,
which must be stored as options()$HH.ROOT.DIR
If you installed the HH library from an R or S-Plus package, then
option options()$HH.ROOT.DIR
is set automatically.
If you installed the HH library by unzipping the downloaded online
files (not a package),
then you must manually define the HH.ROOT.DIR
option in
your working directory (for example, "c:/HOME/yourname/.Data"
in
S-Plus, or the .GlobalEnv
in R). You may do this in your
.First
function in either system. Or you may enter at the
command prompt a statement of the form
options(HH.ROOT.DIR="c:/HOME/hh")
in Windows or
options(HH.ROOT.DIR="/usr/users/hh")
in Unix.
See Appendix B of Heiberger and Holland (2004) for further details.
The options
statement
may need to be modified to match the location of the hh
directory on
your machine. If you use more than one computer, you may need a
different value for the HH.ROOT.DIR
option on each machine. This
is the only change you will need to make in order to run any of our
software or examples. The hh
function itself is unchanged.
Fully expanded, absolute pathname for the input filename.
