predict.smooth.spline
Predict from Smoothing Spline Fit
Predict a smoothing spline fit at new points, return the derivative if desired. The predicted fit is linear beyond the original data.
- Keywords
- smooth
Usage

- ...
- further arguments passed to or from other methods.
Value
-
A list with components
- x
