Hi
I am using the nls function in R however it is causing the following error:
REAL() can only be applied to a 'numeric', not a 'logical'
Using traceback shows this occurs after the .Call(R_nls_iter, m, ctrl,
trace) call. However I do not know how to debug this further to find out
what is causing the error.
The data I give the nls call definitely starts as numeric. The data.frame is
generated by using the following:
d = data.read('data.csv', header=FALSE)
x = as.numberic(d[,1])
y = as.numberic(d[,2])
z = as.numberic(d[,3])
...
Certainly no "b" ?
dat = data.frame(x,y,z...) nls is started by calling: mdl = nls(y ~ Model(x,y,z....,b1,b2,b3), data = dat) Thanks in advance for any help. Matthew
This one's actually tricky since that's an error arising from the C code. I don't think there's an error in the C code, but let's do some work on debugging. To start with, can you make a small reproducible example following the advice given here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5963269/how-to-make-a-great-r-reproducible-example To wit, we don't have your "dat" data (use dput! but please, only a small-ish subset) nor the function "Model" and the lines of code replaced by "..." worry me as well. Best, Michael
