I wonder how one in R can fit a 3rd degree polynomial to some data? Say the data is: y <- c(15.51, 12.44, 31.5, 21.5, 17.89, 27.09, 15.02, 13.43, 18.18, 11.32) x <- seq(3.75, 6, 0.25) And resulting degrees of polynomial are: 5.8007 -91.6339 472.1726 -774.2584 THanks in advance! -- Jonas Malmros Stockholm University Stockholm, Sweden
