Mining Data
The Mining data set contains the results of an experiment to determine whether drilling time was faster for wet drilling or dry drilling (Penner and Watts 1991). Tests were replicated three times for each method at different test holes. There is one observation per five-foot interval for each replication.
The following list describes each variable.
- depth
- depth of the hole, in feet
- driltime
- time to drill the last five feet of the current depth, in minutes
- method
- drilling method, wet or dry
- rep
- replicate number
