[RsR] names for robust fitting functions
Dear all A late contribution to the discussion about names: I personally prefer if the most important characteristic of a function leads to the frist part of the name. As a nice effect, this leads to a meaningful grouping in alphabetic order. The important characteristic is the model or problem. Therefore, I prefer lmrob to roblm Even though lmRob is taken by S-Plus, lmrob is still new. I do not know if covrob is taken more often than robcov . Sorry for opening the question again ...
