Hi everyone, 

I admit I am a bit of an R novice, and I was hoping someone could help me
with this error message:

Warning message:
In lm.fit(x, y, offset = offset, singular.ok = singular.ok, ...) :
  extra arguments weigths are just disregarded.


My equation is:


 lm( Y ~ X1 + X2 + X3, weigths = seq(0.1, 1, by = 0.1))

Hi,

That message usually means that an unknown argument has been supplied to
the function.

In this case you have spelt weights incorrectly.

Best wishes

Martyn
