Hi Petr, Thank you for the response. I am not familiar with the nls package. I am interested in obtaining a function to represent the relationship observed in "dat" over x.seq (days) so that I can calculate a minimum and maximum of the function.
In the example below, it seems like you are using a data frame, but I tried to create the data frame from x.seq and dat: dat.df <- data.frame(x.seq, dat) However, I got the following error: Error in nls(dat ~ SSlogis(x, Asym, xmid, scal), data = dat.df, start = list(Asym = 90, : parameters without starting value in 'data': x Thank you for your assistance, Katrina On Thu, Aug 4, 2011 at 11:14 PM, Petr PIKAL <petr.pi...@precheza.cz> wrote: > Hi > > Are you sure about sine fit?
