More comments on C p

We discuss the interpretation of C p -plots and show how they can be calibrated in several ways. We comment on the practice of using the display as a basis for formal selection of a subset-regression model, and extend the range of application of the device to encompass arbitrary linear estimates of the regression coefficients, for example Ridge estimates.
