R Dataset / Package DAAG / leafshape
On this R-data statistics page, you will find information about the leafshape data set which pertains to Full Leaf Shape Data Set. The leafshape data set is found in the DAAG R package. You can load the leafshape data set in R by issuing the following command at the console data("leafshape"). This will load the data into a variable called leafshape. If R says the leafshape data set is not found, you can try installing the package by issuing this command install.packages("DAAG") and then attempt to reload the data with the library() command. If you need to download R, you can go to the R project website. You can download a CSV (comma separated values) version of the leafshape R data set. The size of this file is about 25,525 bytes.
