MLR is a program for simple and multiple linear regression analysis models. Given a set of observed values for a dependent variable, Y, and one or more independent variables X(i), MLR computes the linear least-squares regression equation and accompanying statistics.
Input data organization. Except for the title, which must be on a separate line, your data for MLR may be entered freeform by separating values by one or more spaces or by starting a new line. The following data is must be provided:
1. k, the number of independent (X) and dependent (Y) variables (maximum: 15) 2. n, the number of observations of the k variables (maximum: 300). 3. A list of k names for the variables, each up to 8 characters long, separated by blanks with the dependent variable is listed LAST. 4. n sets of observations for the k variables separated by blanks. The form is: X(1,1) X(1,2) ...X(1,k-1) Y(1) X(2,1) X(2,2) ...X(2,k-1) Y(2) ... X(n,1) X(n,2) ... X(n,k-1) Y(n) 5. Any additional observations to be forecast with the regression equation computed from the preceding data.
Example data set. This may be cut and pasted into the input form.
