[R] calibration/validation sets

[Austin, Matt]

You could keep a row index vector like in the following example.

> data(iris)
> indx <- sample(nrow(iris), 20, replace=FALSE)
> train <- iris[indx,]
> test  <- iris[-indx,]

Hi; 
Does anyone know how to create a calibration and validation set from a
particular dataset? I have a dataframe with nearly 20,000 rows! and I would
like to select (randomly) a subset from the original dataset (...I found how
to do that) to use as calibration set. However, I don't know how to remove
this "calibration" set from the original dataframe in order to get my
"validation" set.....Any hint will be greatly appreciated. 
TT
