R Dataset / Package MASS / steam
On this R-data statistics page, you will find information about the steam data set which pertains to The Saturated Steam Pressure Data. The steam data set is found in the MASS R package. You can load the steam data set in R by issuing the following command at the console data("steam"). This will load the data into a variable called steam. If R says the steam data set is not found, you can try installing the package by issuing this command install.packages("MASS") 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 steam R data set. The size of this file is about 148 bytes.
