A colleague of mine is comparing results she got from fitting a regression line in CODAP vs. the results obtained in R. There seems to be a slight discrepancy (in hundredths) between the results. Could this be due to rounding issues? Is precision in CODAP different from in R? I can get the CODAP file (and the reported results from R) if you don’t have an answer to this question right off the bat.

Hi Andee,

I don’t have a ready answer, so the ability to compare would be helpful.

Thanks,

Bill

Never mind – we figured it out. It was a problem with the way the data were imported into CODAP – they were rounded to whole numbers and lost information.
