rowtime: Row Times

In DataScienceUWL/DS705data: Data sets for use in the University of Wisconsin DS705 course

Description

Ninety members (aged = 18.1 – 23.4 years) of three Division I women’s intercollegiate rowing teams (National Collegiate Athletic Association) within the Big Ten Conference volunteered to participate in a study to predict race time for female collegiate rowers from physical characteristics. Some of the measured characteristics have been omitted from this set.
