How to put a complicated equation into a R formula?
问题 We have the diameter of trees as the predictor and tree height as the dependent variable. A number of different equations exist for this kind of data and we try to model some of them and compare the results. However, we we can't figure out how to correctly put one equation into the corresponding R formula format. The trees data set in R can be used as an example. data(trees) df <- trees df$h <- df$Height * 0.3048 #transform to metric system df$dbh <- (trees$Girth * 0.3048) / pi #transform
