Hi: I have usually used the GROWTH() excel function to do this but now want to see if I can do this with R. I want to predict values into the future, possibly with the predict.arima Function. I have the following weekly fish weight averages:
weight <- c("2.1","2.4","2.8","3.6","4.1","5.2","6.3") week <- c("1","2","3","4","5","6","7") I would like to predict what the weight will be by week 10 based on my weight values and make a line plot of all the weights(including the predicted values). I have two questions: 1- Should the predicted values be linear or exponential? 2- Is the predict.arima function appropriate to do this? Thanks in advance. Felipe D.
