Orthodont dataset from R-package 'nlme'
Description
The Orthodont data frame has 108 rows and 4 columns of the change in an orthdontic measurement over time for several young subjects.
This dataset was included to simplify its usage in automated unit-tests (see directory UnitTests) and examples.
Investigators at the University of North Carolina Dental School followed the growth of 27 children (16 males, 11 females)
from age 8 until age 14. Every two years they measured the distance between the pituitary and the pterygomaxillary fissure,
two points that are easily identified on x-ray exposures of the side of the head.
Usage
data(Orthodont)
Format
data.frame with 80 rows and 3 variables.
