Description

The allbacks data frame gives measurements on the volume and weight of 15 books, some of which are softback (pb) and some of which are hardback (hb). Area of the hardback covers is also included.

Usage

allbacks

Format

This data frame contains the following columns:

volume
book volumes in cubic centimeters
area
hard board cover areas in square centimeters
weight
book weights in grams
cover
a factor with levels
hb hardback, pb paperback

Source

Examples

print("Multiple Regression - Example 6.1")
attach(allbacks)
volume.split <- split(volume, cover)
weight.split <- split(weight, cover)

     ylab="Weight (g)", xlab="Volume (cc)")
points(weight.split$pb ~ volume.split$pb, pch=16, col=2)
pause()
