Hello,

The problem seems to be that A is a matrix. The following solves the error.

# create A and b as in your code then run
A <- as.data.frame(A)
df1 <- cbind(A, b)
reg <- lm(b ~ ., df1)

# etc


Hope this helps,

Rui Barradas

Hello,
Below is my code:
A <- matrix(rnorm(10*3),ncol=3)
b <- runif(10)
reg <- lm(b ~ A)
A1 <- matrix(rnorm(5*3),ncol=3)
A1 <- as.data.frame(A1)
b1 <- predict(reg,A1)
Warning message:
'newdata' had 5 rows but variables found have 10 rows

   And instead of being an array of length 5, b1 is of length 10 and is 
identical to reg$fitted.values
I think that it should not be like this.
Let me note that for lm I do not care about this as much since I can use 
reg$coefficients, but unfortunately this behaviour is "inherited" by other 
methods. When I am trying to fit a regression tree, predicting from the object without 
using 'predict' method is less trivial.
Thank you,Moshe.
P.S. just in case:> sessionInfo()
