[R] mlogit.optim start values problem

[Jim Lemon]

Hi Alaa,
>From the code you sent, I think that the error may be in one or more lines
preceding the call to mlogit.optim. The "+" prompt means that the R
interpreter thinks there is more to come, and when you added a right brace
("}"), it probably tried to interpret everything back to the last left
brace ("{"). Can you show us the preceding lines?
