Experimental data for analyzing the effect of an increasing dose of a compound on the proportion of live foetuses affected (Paul, 1982, Table 1). Four treatment-groups were considered: control “C”, low dose “L”, medium dose “M” and high dose “H”. The animal species used in the experiment was banded Dutch rabbit.
data(rabbits)A data frame with 84 observations on the following 3 variables.
a factor with levels C, H, L and M
a numeric vector: the total number of foetuses.
a numeric vector: the number of affected foetuses.
