        `predict' is a generic function for predictions from
        the results of various model fitting functions.  The
        function invokes particular methods which depend on the
        `class' of the first argument.

        The function `predict.lm' makes predictions based on
        the results produced by `lm(.)'.

   VVaalluuee::

        The form of the value returned by `predict' depends on
        the class of its argument.  See the documentation of
        the particular methods for details of what is produced
        by that method.
