Hello,

I have a set of data for which I am making linear model.  I would like to
restrict this model for a subset of the data.

I have 100 independent variables labeled x1-x100.  I would like to only like
an lm() that is only accounts for x1-x20.

I have tried restricting my plot:
plot(Date.Code,cases, xlim=c(x1, x20))

m<-lm(cases~Date.Code)

summary(m)


But this only restricts the graphic bounds, not the analysis.

I would greatly appreciate any help on  this matter.

You need to use the subset argument to lm, e.g.

lm(cases ~ Date.Code, subset = (x1 <= Date.Code) & (Date.Code <= x2))


I'd recommend using the data= ... argument to lm() rather than relying on finding the variables in the global environment as well.
