Hi, I had the following situation and I greatly appreciate any advice. SAM gave the following error : "Error in var(v) : missing observations in cov/cor" when applied on a dataset. The error was traced to a variance computation of a vector containing NA in fudge() [a subroutine called by SAM()]. This vector is a computational output in fudge() : "cv[i] <- sqrt(var(v))/mean(v)" The same error was encountered when SAM was applied to other similar datasets. Would modifying the statement to "var(v, na.rm=TRUE)" be a possibility?
SAM() and sam() are different names in R, but neither of them is in the base packages. Which package did you find sam() in? You probably want to ask the author of the package if this modification would be safe.
