On this Picostat.com statistics page, you will find information about the cav data set which pertains to Position of Muscle Caveolae. The cav data set is found in the boot R package. You can load the cav data set in R by issuing the following command at the console data("cav"). This will load the data into a variable called cav. If R says the cav data set is not found, you can try installing the package by issuing this command install.packages("boot") and then attempt to reload the data. If you need to download R, you can go to the R project website. You can download a CSV (comma separated values) version of the cav R data set. The size of this file is about 1,056 bytes.
