[R] The standard deviation of measurement 1 with respect to measurement 2

2008-08-13 Thread Firas Swidan
Hi, I have two (different types of) measurements, say X and Y, resulting from the same set of experiments. So X and Y are paired: (x_1, y_1), (x_2, y_2), ... I am trying to calculate the standard deviation of Y with respect to X. In other words, in terms of the scatter plot of X and Y, I would li

How do I check that, and what quantification does it provide? Thanks, Firas. On Wed, 2008-07-23 at 21:20 +0530, Bogaso Cristofer wrote: > Have u checked skewness of data? > > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of Firas Sw
