[R] Formula documentation

2013-10-09 Thread Data Analytics Corp.
Hi, I recall that the form for an R formula statement has a formal name and a reference, perhaps in the computer science area. I'm referring to a statement such as Y ~ x1 + x2 + x3. Does anyone know the name for this form and where it came from? I would like to use this in a presentation
