approxExtrap: Linear Extrapolation

Description

Works in conjunction with the approx function to do linear extrapolation. approx in R does not support extrapolation at all, and it is buggy in S-Plus 6.

Usage

approxExtrap(x, y, xout, method = "linear", n = 50, rule = 2, f = 0,
             ties = "ordered", na.rm = FALSE)

Value

a vector the same length as xout

Arguments

x,y,xout,method,n,rule,f

see approx

ties

applies only to R. See approx

na.rm

set to TRUE to remove NAs in x and y before proceeding

Author

Details

Duplicates in x (and corresponding y elements) are removed before using approx.
