On this Picostat.com statistics page, you will find information about the pressure data set which pertains to Vapor Pressure of Mercury as a Function of Temperature. The pressure data set is found in the datasets R package. You can load the pressure data set in R by issuing the following command at the console data("pressure"). This will load the data into a variable called pressure. If R says the pressure data set is not found, you can try installing the package by issuing this command install.packages("datasets") 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 pressure R data set. The size of this file is about 183 bytes.
