Ah, now we're getting somewhere. Think how easy this would be if you'd provided this information initially.

There's no data argument, and the variable names don't match the column headers in the data you provided. Here's a revised version, that prints and plots the tree, and predicts some test data. # corrected rpart(), guessing at what you meant markdata <- read.table("http://statcourse.com/research/boston.csv", , sep=",", header = TRUE) fit <- rpart (MEDV~ CRIM+ZN+INDUS+CHAS+NOX+RM+AGE+DIS+RAD+TAX+ PTRATIO+B+LSTAT, data=markdata) # two ways of looking at the complete tree fit plot(fit) text(fit) # predicting a few values mark.subsample <- markdata[1:5,] predict(fit, mark.subsample, type="vector") If this is your actual code, your problem was far more basic than plotting and predicting. Sharing your error messages would have been a good start.
