[R] vector("integer", length) : vector size specified is too large

[Uwe Ligges]

Please ask the author of parts() in the partitions package or the author 
of the function that calls the former:

your function calls generate a call
parts(J) where J is 1272.
Internally, a J*P(J) (1272 * 1.514126e+19)  vector is generated (and 
that one is too large for R).
