The manuals that come with R will probably answer your questions, but there may be easier ways to get what you need. Duncan Murdoch

It is quite terse though (it is one of the few books I have which I wish were longer) and not so suitable if you are also learning statistics at the same time.>Best wishes, >Michael > > >____________________________________ > >Michael McCulloch >Pine Street Clinic >Pine Street Foundation >124 Pine Street, San Anselmo, CA 94960-2674 >tel 415.407.1357 >fax 415.485.1065 >email: mm at pinest.org >web: www.pinest.org > www.pinestreetfoundation.org > www.medepi.net/meta > >Michael Dewey http://www.aghmed.fsnet.co.uk
