\title{data from Example 1.2}
\description{
    The \code{xmp01.02} data frame has 27 rows and 1 column of flexural
    strengths of concrete.
}
\format{
    This data frame contains the following columns:
    \describe{
    \item{strength}{
        a numeric vector of flexural strengths (MegaPascals)
    }
    }

\details{
    Data on the flexural strength (MPa) of high-performance concrete
    beams obtained by using superplasticizers and certain binders.
