Dear all,

I'm confused by the time serie parameters in data(lh) :

sueoka:~ lobry$ R --vanilla --quiet
>  tsp(lh)
[1]  1 48  1

because documentation says:

QUOTE
A regular time series giving the luteinizing hormone in blood
samples at 10 mins intervals from a human female, 48 samples.
UNQUOTE

So that I would expect the time serie to end at 480 minutes
or 8 hours. Shouldn't we have something like:

>  tsp(lh) <- c(10, 480, 0.1) # in Minutes

or

>  tsp(lh) <- c(1/6, 8, 6)    # in Hours

Best,

Jean
