Whitestar


For each person on board the fatal maiden voyage of the ocean liner
Titanic, this dataset records sex, age (adult/child), economic status
(first/second/third class, or crew) and whether or not that person
survived.  The name of the company that owned the Titanic was White Star.
Several versions of these data exist in the R universe.

This package is a companion to the textbook S. Weisberg (2014),
"Applied Linear Regression," 4rd edition, Wiley. It includes all the
data sets discussed in the book and one function to access the textbook's
website.
This package depends on the car package.  Many data files in this package
are included in the alr3 package as well, so only one of them should be
loaded.
