well, one way is to say ... i have n=10 ... so, there are 2 zeros, 3 ones, etc. and find it based on that data ... doesn't matter if there are 10 or 100 or 1000 ... now, if you had some n that did not divide exactly by these p values ... there might be another algebraic way to do it as long as

2001-01-06 Thread A. G. McDowell
I think I've resolved this question with a colleague. We likened the heritability of a given trait, for example, jump height, to the relationship between that trait and some other explanatory variable, such as leg length. The R^2 for leg length explaining jump height might be 0.36. Now,
