Why not use S if that does what you want? There are examples using R in MASS, for example: see the ch04.R and ch15.R scripts. > Also I'd like to know if there is something like the S function > pointwise that computes upper and lower confidence intervals. (Do you mean upper and lower confidence limits?) Thats a more general question. Many of R's predict() methods can construct confidence (and tolerance) intervals. If not, it is easy to do this yourself, as pred_obj$fit-/+pred_obj$se*qnorm(alpha/2). -- Brian D.
