simple fit
Fit y-b without an intercept? (which you do by adding "+ 0" or "- 1" to the model formula) Not sure if this is the optimal result, but it will give you a pretty reasonable answer. Michael

Dear all, ?I have a formula of the form y=ax+b I know everything except b. How I can ask R to do fitting to find only the value of b? I already know the lm() but it always return both an intercept point (b) and the a. What should I do ? I would like to thank you in advance for your help B.R Alex ? ? ? ?[[alternative HTML version deleted]]
