I am trying to obtain the coefficients from a regression (performed using lm).  I would like to get the value for the slope (i.e. estimate) for pre from the following regression:


fitchange <- lm(post-pre~pre,data=mydata2)


I have tried the following without any success:


zz <- summary(fitchange)["coefficients"]
class(zz)
print(zz)
zz[[2,1]]
zz[2,1]
zz["pre","Estimate"]


I clearly don't know how to select elements from the list returned by the summary function.


A reproducible version of my code follows:


mydata2 <-structure(list(pre = c(71.3302299440613, 86.2703384845455, 120.941698468568,
                              80.9020778388552, 84.9927752038908, 77.9108032451793, 111.007107108483,
                              93.288442414475, 126.097826796255, 111.63734644637),
                         post = c(45.9294556667686,
                                114.661937978585, 138.501558726477, 55.355775963925, 97.7906200355594,
                                71.1008233796004, 149.308274695789, 122.828428213951, 143.690814568562,
                                116.607579975539)), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA, -10L))

fitchange <- lm(post-pre~pre,data=mydata2)
zz <- summary(fitchange)["coefficients"]
class(zz)
print(zz)
zz[[2,1]]
zz[2,1]
zz["pre","Estimate"]


Any help you can offer would be appreciated.
