Regarding John's comments on multiple regression: 1. Matrix algebra is not necessary, and for purposes such as stepwise multiple linear regression will actually get in the way. -In your opinion, what type of statistics are better suited for matrix algebra? 2. I have a little treatise I wrote on stepwise multiple linear regression in meta/hypercard, including the relevant meta/hypertalk code. -In this stack, you stated that the simple multiple regression routines used here are based on two simple, but elegant routines that are at the heart of virtually any multiple regression package commercially available: the recursive SSCP algorithm and the Sweep algorithm. As I understand , logistic regression is just a transformation of the dependent variable to the log odds ratio, after which the usual regression procedures are followed. Can your stack/routines be modified to perform logistic regression? ie. determine Coefficients and Standard Errors...Odds Ratios and 95% Confidence Intervals... mike Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Info: http://www.xworlds.com/metacard/mailinglist.htm Please send bug reports to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, not this list.
