Hi, I assume this is what you are looking. ?variable.names()
x <- 1:20 y <- x + (x/4 - 2)^3 + rnorm(20, sd=3) names(y) <- paste("O",x,sep=".") ww <- rep(1,20); ww[13] <- 0 summary(lmxy <- lm(y ~ x + I(x^2)+I(x^3) + I((x-10)^2), weights = ww), cor = TRUE) variable.names(lmxy) [1] "(Intercept)" "x" "I(x^2)" "I(x^3)" A.K. ----- Original Message ----- From: jdub <j...@ramas.com> To: r-help@r-project.org Cc: Sent: Wednesday, May 23, 2012 10:58 AM Subject: [R] Get variable names from results of lm() What is the best way to get the variable names used in lm() from its results? Stumbling around I found I could get the response variable name from myMod$terms[[2]] but using myMod$terms[[1 ]] gives a tilda. I found the names buried in other places in the model object and in the summary of the model, but is there a more direct way, similar to using coef(myMod) to get the coefficients? -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Get-variable-names-from-results-of-lm-tp4631095.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
