foretell: Alternative to 'predict' returning values of correct type.

In simputation: Simple Imputation

Alternative to 'predict' returning values of correct type.

Description

Te default precict function doesn't always return the predicted variable by default. For example, when estimating a binomial model using glm, by default the log-odds are returned. foretell wraps predict while setting options so that the actual predicted value is returned.

Usage

foretell(object, ...)

## Default S3 method:
foretell(object, ...)

## S3 method for class 'glm'
foretell(object, newdata = NULL, type, ...)

## S3 method for class 'rpart'
foretell(object, newdata, type, ...)

Arguments

object	A model object,(lm, glm, ...)
...	Furher arguments passed to predict.
newdata	[data.frame] a data frame in which to look for variables with which to predict. For glmnet models this argument is mandatory.
type	[character] Type of output. If missing, the type of predicted variable is returned.
