#' @name wheat
#' @aliases wheat
#' @title Mercer and Hall wheat yield data
#'
#' @description Mercer and Hall wheat yield data, based on version in Cressie (1993), p. 455.
#' 
#' @format The format of the object generated by running \code{data(wheat)} is a three column data frame made available by Hongfei Li. The example section shows how to convert this to the object used in demonstrating the \code{aple} function, and is a formal class 'SpatialPolygonsDataFrame' [package "sp"] with 5 slots; the data slot is a data frame with 500 observations on the following 6 variables.
#' \itemize{
#'         \item{lat: local coordinates northings ordered north to south}
#'         \item{yield: Mercer and Hall wheat yield data}
#'         \item{r: rows south to north; levels in distance units of plot centres}
#'         \item{c: columns west to east; levels in distance units of plot centres}
#'         \item{lon: local coordinates eastings}
#'         \item{lat1: local coordinates northings ordered south to north}
#' }
#' @note The value of 4.03 was changed to 4.33 (wheat[71,]) 13 January 2014; thanks to Sandy Burden; cross-checked with http://www.itc.nl/personal/rossiter/teach/R/mhw.csv, which agrees.
