least.rect: Least rectangles linear regression

Description

Return information about a least rectangle linear regression: equation, confidence interval of parameters, equality of the slope to a given value and Pearson's linear correlation coefficient.

Usage

least.rect(formula, data=NULL, conf.level = 0.95, theo = 1)

Arguments

formula

a formula of the form y ~ x, where y and x give the y and x variable, respectively.

data

an optional data frame containing the variables in the formula formula. By default the variables are taken from environment(formula).

conf.level

confidence level.

theo

theoretical value of the slope.
