R help - Nov 2003 - re: lines(lowess())

beginner's mistake on my part.  the fitted turned out to have negative
values
in it, so the logplot failed.  apologies.

it still would be nice to have more docs on lowess, but this has nothing to do 
with my question.

regards, /iaw

Did you try Google?  For me just now, Google produced "about 
9,800" hits, the first 10 of which seemed to be relevant;  I didn't
look
beyond that.  Lowess (sometimes called "loess") is a relatively old 
technique and has been documented in many places.  Many books on 
"exploratory data analysis" discuss it. 

      hope this helps.  spencer graves
