data("BODYFAT")
Format
A data frame with 252 observations on the following 14 variables.
BodyFata numeric vector indicating the percentage body fat 0-100
Agea numeric vector, yrs
Weighta numeric vector, lbs
Heighta numeric vector, inches
Necka numeric vector
Chesta numeric vector
Abdomena numeric vector
Hipa numeric vector
Thigha numeric vector
Kneea numeric vector
Anklea numeric vector
Bicepsa numeric vector
Forearma numeric vector
Wrista numeric vector
Details
Bodyfat can be accurately measured by the hydrostatic technique, where someone is submereged in a tank of water. It would be useful to be able to predict body fat from measurements that are simpler to obtain. Unless otherwise specified, all physical measurements are in centimeters.
