[R] Smoothing Spline Basis Matrix

[pinkdd]

Thanks, Derek.

I used your code, but H still has a lot of columns being 0. I'm not sure
why. 
I'm dealing the data http://www-stat.stanford.edu/~tibs/ElemStatLearn/
with X=age, Y=spnbmd
I think X has too many duplicated data???

I'll check the book you recommended in the library tomorrow. Thanks again.
