Te default precict function doesn't always return the
predicted variable by default. For example, when estimating
a binomial model using glm, by default the
log-odds are returned. foretell wraps predict while
setting options so that the actual predicted value is returned.
foretell(object, ...)# S3 method for default
foretell(object, ...)
# S3 method for glm
foretell(object, newdata = NULL, type, ...)
# S3 method for rpart
foretell(object, newdata, type, ...)
A model object,(lm, glm, ...)
Furher arguments passed to predict.
[data.frame] a data frame in which to look
for variables with which to predict. For glmnet models
this argument is mandatory.
[character] Type of output. If missing, the type of
predicted variable is returned.
