Hi ,

When I run the following code , I get both the description and the value ,
eg : Intercept and 0.5714286.

Is there a way to extract just the value 0.5714286? Thanks!


x <- c(1,5,3,1)> y <- c(5,8,2,3)> lm(x~y)
Call:
lm(formula = x ~ y)

Coefficients:
(Intercept)            y
      0.5714       0.4286
lm(x~y)$coefficient[1](Intercept)
   0.5714286


It's a name, not a description.  The result is a named vector.

To get rid of the name, call unname() on it, i.e.

unname(lm(x~y)$coefficient[1])

I guess the OP is going to use the name (here "(Intercept)" without the quotes) to extract the value, hence (also using the extractior function coef()):

coef(lm(x~y))["(Intercept)"]

Best,
