R Dataset / Package robustbase / CrohnD
On this R-data statistics page, you will find information about the CrohnD data set which pertains to Crohn's Disease Adverse Events Data. The CrohnD data set is found in the robustbase R package. You can load the CrohnD data set in R by issuing the following command at the console data("CrohnD"). This will load the data into a variable called CrohnD. If R says the CrohnD data set is not found, you can try installing the package by issuing this command install.packages("robustbase") 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 CrohnD R data set. The size of this file is about 4,700 bytes.
