Your example seems strange because a line fits on the x-y scale; not on the log(x)-log(y) scale. Anyway, here is my example. You can build on it for more general data.
x <- exp(1:10) y <- exp(10:1 + rnorm(10)) logmod <- lm(log(y)~log(x)) logypred <- predict(logmod) plot(y~x) lines(exp(logypred)~x, col=2) plot(y~x, log="xy") lines(exp(logypred)~x, col=2) Chris -----Original Message----- From: Rui Barradas [mailto:ruipbarra...@sapo.pt] Sent: Friday, December 14, 2012 12:06 PM To: mrkooper Cc: r-help@r-project.org Subject: Re: [R] plotting log regression Hello, How can you expect to see the fit line if you are ploting x and y values, not their logarithms? And your definitions of x and y are wrong, they should use c(). x <- c(1,2,3,4,5) y <- c(6,7,8,9,10) plot(log(x), log(y)) fit <- lm(log(y) ~ log(x)) # Same as glm abline(fit) Please read R-intro, in the doc folder of your installation of R.
