matrix or data frame of cases to be predicted or, if object
has a formula, a data frame with columns of the same names as the
variables used. A vector will be interpreted
as a row vector. If newdata is missing, an attempt will be
made to retrieve the data used to fit the lqs object.

values in newdata. The default is to predict NA.

Details
This function is a method for the generic function
predict() for class lqs.
It can be invoked by calling predict(x) for an
object x of the appropriate class, or directly by
calling predict.lqs(x) regardless of the
class of the object.
Missing values in newdata are handled by returning NA if the
linear fit cannot be evaluated. If newdata is omitted and
the na.action of the fit omitted cases, these will be omitted on the
prediction.
