[R] about fitting a regression line

Thu Jun 15 22:10:25 CEST 2017

You really have to show what you did to get the result you showed.  E.g.,
something like the following:

> d <- data.frame(x=1:7, y=c(7,4,2,3,6,8,7))
> fit <- lm( y~cos(x), data=d)
> coef(fit)
(Intercept)      cos(x)
   5.079190    3.022805
> sfit <- summary(fit)
> sfit$r.squared
[1] 0.9915548
> with(sfit, pf(fstatistic[1], fstatistic[2], fstatistic[3], lower=FALSE))
       value
