Question: Use your own computers regression software and the weight (Y) and height (X) data from Table 1.1 to see if you can reproduce the estimates
Use your own computer’s regression software and the weight (Y) and height (X) data from Table 1.1 to see if you can reproduce the estimates in Equation 1.19. There are two ways to load the data: You can type in the data yourself or you can download datafile HTWT1 (in Stata, EViews, Excel, or ASCII formats) from the text’s website: http://www.pearsonhighered.com/studenmund. Once the datafile is loaded, run Y = f(X), and your results should match Equation 1.19. Different programs require different commands to run a regression. For help in how to do this with Stata or EViews, either see the answer to this question in Appendix A or read Appendix 1.7.
