I have data that looks like
YC Age Num
82 11 2
83 10 0
84 9 8
85 8 21
86 7 49
87 6 18
88 5 79
89 4 28
90 3 273
91 2 175
with a program
mod1=lm(log(Num+1)~YC, data=box44)
plot(log(Num+1)~YC, data=box44, pch=19, xlab="Year Class",
ylab="Loge Number at age", ylim=c(0,6), xlim=c(91,82))
abline(lm(log(Num+1)~YC), col="blue", lwd=2)
summary(mod1)
I need to regress log(Num+1) against YC, but in descending (91 - 82) order so
as to get a negative slope and positive intercept. I can plot the values such
that the regression line appears correct (the xlim statement), but I can't
figure out how to force the regression from YC 91 through 82. A call to the
rev() function in front of YC does not produce the results I'm looking for.
More than likely, I'm overlooking something. Thanks for any help you can
provide.
