Simulated Data

Description

A simulated data set to illustrate the functions in this package.

set.seed(4)

x1 <- rbinom(100, 1,.5)

x2 <- rnorm(100)

x3 <- rnorm(100)

z1 <- runif(100, 0, 1)

z2 <- runif(100, -1, 1)

y <- 3*x1 +1.5*x2 + 2*x3 + 5*sin(2*pi*z1) + 5*z2^3 + rnorm(100)

simData <- data.frame(y,x1,x2,x3,z1,z2)

Usage

data(simData)

Format

A data frame with 100 observations on the following 6 variables.

y

response: expenditure

x1

male/female (a linear term)

x2

distance north/south from center (a linear term)

x3

distance east/west from center (a linear term)

z1

income/(max income) (a nonlinear term)

z2
