Thanks. I was able to get what I wanted by doing this: predxn <- function(s,d) { coef(m3)[1] + coef(m3)[2]*s + coef(m3)[3]*s^2 + coef(m3)[4]*d + coef(m3)[5]*d^2 } But it's not very elegant... // joseph w. clark , phd candidate \\ usc marshall school of business

Your problem is the sum() call -- it's not vectorized (in the regular sense) so it breaks some of the internal assumptions of outer(). Easiest way is probably to do matrix multiplication (%*%) directly here Michael On Jul 9, 2012, at 10:19 PM, Joseph Clark wrote: > > Hi there, I'm trying to

Hi there, I'm trying to prep some data for a persp() surface plot representing the predictions from a regression with two inddependent variables. The regression model "m3" has an intercept, 2 linear terms, and 2 squared terms. The coefficients are given by coef(m3). My approach to generati
