Since the diagnostics often make use of the observation names of the data frame, you may find it helpful to specify observation names for the data input. Use the row.names command to achieve this. For example, to assign the names ``Dan'', ``Kosuke'', ``Liz'' and ``Gary'' to a data frame with the first four observations in the Lalonde data, type:
> test <- lalonde[1:4, ]
> row.names(test) <- c("Dan", "Kosuke", "Liz", "Gary")
> print(test)
