There are three families of fuctions in LearningRlab:

  1. Main functions: these functions return the result of performing the process represented with the function.

  2. Explained fuctions: these funcions returns the process itself to get the result, with the result.

  3. User Interactive Functions: these functions maintain an interactive contact with the user to guide him in the resolution of the represented function.

Main Functions:

To explain the use of each function, we present a dataset to work with them:
