Dear useRs,
Lately I noticed a strange warning in the summary of a lm-object. Any
idea what this warning is about? I'm using R 2.5.1 on Win XP pro.
> x <- rnorm(100)
> y <- rnorm(100)
> summary(lm(y~x))
Call:
lm(formula = y ~ x)
Residuals:
Min 1Q Median 3Q Max
-1,77809 -0,68438 -0,04409 0,63891 2,30863
Coefficients:
Estimate Std. Error t value Pr(>|t|)
(Intercept) -0,00217 0,09244 -0,023 0,981
x 0,01315 0,09628 0,137 0,892
Residual standard error: 0,9236 on 98 degrees of freedom
Multiple R-Squared: 0.0001903, Adjusted R-squared: -0.01001
F-statistic: 0.01866 on 1 and 98 DF, p-value: 0,8916
Warning message:
NAs introduced by coercion in: as.double.default(Cf[okP])
Thanks,
Thierry
