R help - Jun 2005 - mypredict.

Hi,

I am wondering what does "mypredict.lda<-function(object, 
newdata)predict(object, newdata=newdata)$class" actually do?

I run a few errorest commands in the same function on the same dataset using 
the same classifier lda. The only difference is some use "cv", other
use
"boot" and "632plus". They all share one mypredict.lda.

Will it cause any problem?

Regards, justin

No.

mypredict.lda() is a wrapper for errorest() which expects to get the 
class from predict(), but not all the other "stuff" predict.lda()
provides.
