[R] missing data dataset needed

[Frank E Harrell Jr]

Look at the SUPPORT dataset at
http://hesweb1.med.virginia.edu/biostat/s/data

This is one of my favorite dataset for teaching because it has lots of predictors some of which have missing values and it has several types of response variables -

- binary (death in hospital)
- survival time
- ordinal (functional status at 2 months)
- continuous (hospital costs)

All see the titanic3 dataset which has missing values for some of the ages of the Titanic passengers.  I do multiple imputation for that variable in Regression Modeling Strategies (Springer, 2001).  The response is binary (surviving the disaster).
