[R] xerror and xstd are missing from cptable of the Rpart package

[Adams, Jean]

Kim,

The "x" in "xerror" and "xstd" stands for cross validation.  But you have
specified no cross validations, xval=0.

Try:

model <- rpart(Product ~ ., data=trainData, control=rpart.control(minsplit=50,
cp=0.002))
model$cptable
