I was hoping for something reproducible. I can't run your code or make use of the data to save time in creating an example. Try this with builtin anscombe:
> nc <- ncol(anscombe) > sapply(seq(1, nc, 2), function(i) coef(lm.fit(cbind(1, anscombe[,i]), > anscombe[,i+1]))) [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] x1 0 13.5 1.8749414 8.6670365 x2 1 -0.5 0.7500381 -0.1554836 On Wed, Jul 30, 2008 at 2:08 PM, rcoder <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Well, in this case I don't think my original code would have helped much... > > So, I've rewritten as below.
