sniffer


When gasoline is pumped into a tank, hydrocarbon vapors are forced out and into the atmosphere.  To reduce this significant source of air pollution, devices are installed to capture the vapor.  In testing these vapor recovery systems, a "sniffer" measures the amount recovered. John Rice provided the data for the file sniffer.txt.


datasets

This package is a companion to the textbook S. Weisberg (2005),
"Applied Linear Regression," 3rd edition, Wiley. It includes all the
data sets discussed in the book (except one), and a few functions that
are tailored to the methods discussed in the book.  As of version 2.0.0,
this package depends on the car package. Many functions formerly
in alr3 have been renamed and now reside in car.
Data files have beeen lightly modified to make some data columns row labels.
