R help - Nov 2011 - Transformations

Hi, I'm having some trouble with R code for one of my assignment questions
on
transforms. I've never used R for transformations so I'm not sure where
to
being. Our prof did give us some partial R code.par(mfrow=c(2,2)) 
plot(X[,2],e) 
plot(X[,3],e) 
plot(X[,4],e) 
plot(X[,5],e) 

 Any help ?? 
3. Try the following transformations on the response variable: 
(a) ? y = ey 
(b) ? y = log(y) 
(c) ? y = 1/y 
(d) ? y = 1/y2 
(e) ? y = 1/?y 
Carry out the regression ? y = ?0 + ?1 x1 + ?2 x2 + ?3 x3 + ?4 x4 + ? for
each case, 
including the residual analysis

This mailing list specifically discourages homework questions, but  
especially discourages ones where the student remains anonymous and  
show not evidence of prior effort beyond typing the question at their  
keyboard.
