Stepwise regression in r-studio - can you run stepwise regression with the condition that it throws out any coefficients greater than 1,000 in value?

To clarify, R is the language, and RStudio is the IDE – so, even if you want to use RStudio to use R (which is great, yay!) the language you're using is R . See the FAQ, below, for further disambiguation:

Aside: goals for this thread

I'm hoping this will help people disambiguate R from RStudio, and also help with getting questions in the right category. This is a bit of a mashup of the times I've tried to explain this in individual threads, so please feel free to add to this topic for further clarification/point out corrections, etc.

Before putting a code-related question in the #rstudio-ide category or using the rstudio tag, it's helpful to ask yourself: Does this work in the regular R GUI, but not when you're in RStudio? If you're using RStudio, you're using R — RStudio is just an IDE (Integrated Development Environment) in which you are using the R language. (On of my favourite fi…

Since it's not an issue with the IDE itself, I'm going to remove the rstudio tag.

For stepwise regression, I recommend checking out this brief Stepwuse Regression Essentials guide.

You'll need to filter or subset to get just the cases with coefficients > 1,000. This can be done in any number of ways; for how to do this using base R see Filtering and subsetting in R – personally, I tend to do my wrangling/filtering in the tidyverse, in this case, you'd be using dplyr::filter(), which you can learn about here:

Keep rows that match a condition — filter
