hi all i am busy teaching a regression analysis course to second year science students. the course is fairly theoretical with all of the standard theorems and proofs... i would like to give the class a practical assignment as well. could you suggest a good problem and the location of the data set/s? it would be good if the data set has been analysed by a number of other people so that students can see the different ways of tackling a regression problem. some of the issues to be covered: estimation is there really a model variable selection ... outliers and influential observations interpreting the regression model / allan

If you want some "textbook" examples I'd recommend Ripley and Venables's Modern Applied Statistics With S (VR bundle); Maindonald and Braun's Data Analysis and Graphics using R (DAAG package) Cheers, Kev
