Dear all,
I've sent a mail last week already. I've been trying to get this predict
function work, but somehow I keep on getting the same error. Read the help
files, searched the internet, but I don't seem to get what I'm doing
wrong.
Anybody who has experience with this function? It's contained in the package
e1071.
Thank you in advance
