I suspect I am overlooking something pretty straightforward, but for
the life of me can't figure out what it is. Apologies in advance if
the answer should be obvious to me...
I am trying to run the 2010 Workshop script found here :
https://r-forge.r-project.org/scm/viewvc.php/pkg/PortfolioAnalytics/sandbox/script.workshop2010.R?view=markup&revision=1673&root=returnanalytics
but am getting this error as I step through it :
> table = as.matrix(ES(indexes[,1:4], weights=rep(1/4,4),
> portfolio_method="component", p=(1-1/12))$pct_contrib_MES)
Error in ES(indexes[, 1:4], weights = rep(1/4, 4), portfolio_method =
"component", :
could not find function "operES.CornishFisher.portfolio"
Now, I understand what that means. Thinking that I was using a
too-recent version of the code, I checked out and installed rev 1844
(as an example), but got the same error. When I look at the NAMESPACE
file, I see that this is supposed to be an un-exported function.
My question is - how do I get this function recognized? I really
doubt it involves tinkering with the code itself, so I'm thinking that
I have overlooked something pretty straightforward in my invoking
library(PerformanceAnalytics)
library(PortfolioAnalytics)
I am running R 2.14.2 on Windows (and dealing with doSNOW rather than
doMC, though that's not relevant on this issue) and sessionInfo is
below my sig.
I realize that the authors have a lot to do with this year's workshop,
so any help - and patience in replying - would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Matt
