R Dataset / Package boot / islay

On this R-data statistics page, you will find information about the islay data set which pertains to Jura Quartzite Azimuths on Islay. The islay data set is found in the boot R package. You can load the islay data set in R by issuing the following command at the console data("islay"). This will load the data into a variable called islay. If R says the islay data set is not found, you can try installing the package by issuing this command install.packages("boot") and then attempt to reload the data with the library() command.
