Learn R Programming

⚠️There's a newer version (1.8.157) of this package.Take me there.

rockchalk (version 1.8.101)

Regression Estimation and Presentation

Description

A collection of functions for interpretation and presentation of regression analysis. These functions are used to produce the statistics lectures in http://pj.freefaculty.org/guides. Includes regression diagnostics, regression tables, and plots of interactions and "moderator" variables. The emphasis is on "mean-centered" and "residual-centered" predictors. The vignette 'rockchalk' offers a fairly comprehensive overview. The vignette 'Rstyle' has advice about coding in R. The package title 'rockchalk' refers to our school motto, 'Rock Chalk Jayhawk, Go K.U.'.
