Hi all,
   I have a function rho.f which gives a list of estimators. I have the
following problems.
rho.f(0.3) gives me the right answer. However, if I use rho.f(corr[4]) give
me a different
answer, even though corr[4]==0.3.
   This prevents me from using a for loop. Can someone give me some help?
    Thank you very much in advance.
                                                   Hannah
