Description

A version of the eruptions data from the ‘Old Faithful’ geyser in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming. This version comes from Azzalini and Bowman (1990) and is of continuous measurement from August 1 to August 15, 1985.

Some nocturnal duration measurements have originally been described as ‘short’, ‘medium’ or ‘long’ and are given as interval censored observations in this version of the dataset.

Usage

Format

A data frame with 299 observations on 2 variables.

Note

Variable duration was converted to a Surv object for representing interval censored nocturnal observations.
