RE: [R] coef names in lm

2003-09-10 Thread Liaw, Andy
If you coerce design into a data frame and then do

lm.1 - lm(response ~ . - 1, data=design, ...)

that should work.

 Subject: [R] coef names in lm
 
 
 Dear all,
 I am interested in finding out how to change the names of 
 coefficients in the lm function. I have a design matrix which 
 I called design where each variate has its own name. 
 However when I issue the command:
 
 lm.1-lm(response~design-1, weights=some.weights)
 
 and follow it with:
 
 summary(lm.1)
 
 it seems to paste as a character the names of the variates
 with design i.e I have something like:
 
 designAge
 designPlace
 designOccupation
 ...
 as names of coefficients and instead I just wanted to be
 it seems to do
 Age
 Place
 Occupation.
 
 P.S.. the reason I need this is because I am using the xtable 
 library to turn output into latex tables and do not want to 
 manually delete each and every single design word in the 
 coefficients name vector.
 
 Thank you so much for any feedback,
 
 Jean Eid

Maybe this will work for you:

df - as.data.frame(design)
lm.2 - lm(response ~ ., df)
-roger
