Hi,

Hopefully I got the formatting down.. I am trying to do a lasso regression 
using the lars package with the following data (the data files is in .csv 
format):

        V1              V2              V3                      V4              
        V5              V6              V7              V8              V9

        4.428571        3.2857144       117.557144      117.76667       5.0

        6.142857        2.142857        116.84286       116.8           2.0
4       116.41428       0.0             0.14285715              0.2857143       
        5.714286        3.7142856       117.24286       117.166664      4.0
5       115.8           0.5714286       0.0                     0.2857143       
        2.142857        2.5714285       116.21429       116.53333       6.0

#load Data
crs<- 
read.csv("file:///C:/temp/Horse//horseracing.csv<file:///C:\temp\Horse\horseracing.csv>",
 na.strings=c(",", "NA", "", "?"), encoding="UTF-8")

#    # define x and y
x= x<-crs[,9]    #predictor variables
y= y<-crs[1:8,]  #response variable


library(lars)
cv.lars(x, y, K=10, trace=TRUE, plot.it = TRUE,se = TRUE, type="lasso")

and I get:

LASSO sequence
Error in one %*% x : requires numeric/complex matrix/vector arguments

Any idea on what I am doing wrong?  Thank you!!

Sincerely,

tom
