\title{data from Example 10.5}
\description{
  The \code{xmp10.05} data frame has 20 rows and 2 columns of data from
  an experiment on the effect of alcohol on REM sleep time
}
\format{
  This data frame contains the following columns:
  \describe{
    \item{REMtime}{
      a numeric vector giving the rapid eye movement (REM) sleep time
      for each rat during a 24-hour period
    }
    \item{ethanol}{
      a numeric vector giving the concentration of ethanol (alcohol) per
      body weight administered to the rat (g/kg)
    }
  }
}
