lm regression
Can you create a small example that replicates your problem? If not, at least send the code you are running right before R throws an error (e.g., the exact call to lm) and some basic information on your data like the class of each variable and the number of observations. Is your outcome variable, Y, a factor? That is what the warning suggests (model.response extracts the response (outcome, the variable on the left side of the ~ ) variable from your model. HTH, Josh

I found one error in in the code, however, I still receive errors. Error in storage.mode(y) <- "double" : ?invalid to change the storage mode of a factor Moreover: Warning message: In model.response(mf, "numeric") : ?using type="numeric" with a factor response will be ignored
From my understanding of the warning there are two errors, maybe they are
connected. I think I should change an option in the lm changing the responso from "numeric" to "factor". Is it true? How it can be done? -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/lm-regression-tp3060123p3060363.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
