Adding categorical to the auto performance model
Now you'll include categorical variables in your model. Categories are inherently linear, so you'll model them as linear terms.

- Fit a GAM to the
mpg
data, modelingcity.mpg
as a sum of smooth functions ofweight
,length
, andprice
, and also include the categorical termsfuel
,drive
, andstyle
. - Use the
plot()
function provided to visualize the model.
