function result = mlr(x,y,varargin)

%MLR is the classical least squares estimator for multivariate multiple
% linear regression. It can handle both one or several ('multiple')
% predictor variables and one or several ('multivariate') response variables. 
% If the regression model contains an intercept, the x-matrix may not contain
% a column with ones. 
% If there is only one response variable, the function ols.m is called. 
%
% See for example: 
%   R.A. Johnson and D.W. Wichern, 
%   "Applied multivariate statistical analysis (Fifth Edition)",
%   Prentice Hall, chapter 7.
%
% Required input arguments:
%         x : Data matrix of the explanatory variables
%             (n observations in rows, p variables in columns)
%         y : Data matrix of the response variables
%             (n observations in rows, q variables in columns)
%
% Optional input arguments: 
% intercept : logical flag: if 1, a model with constant term will be 
%             fitted; if 0, no constant term will be included. (default: 1)
%     plots : If equal to one, a menu is shown which allows to draw several plots,
%             such as residual plots and a regression outlier map. (default)
%             If 'plots' is equal to zero, all plots are suppressed.
%             See also makeplot.m
%
% I/O: result=mlr(x,y,'plots',0);
%   The user should only give the input arguments that have to change their default value.
% 
% The output is a structure containing:
%
%   result.slope     : Slope estimate
%   result.int       : Intercept estimate
%   result.fitted    : Fitted values
%   result.res       : Residuals
%   result.stdres    : Standardized residuals 
%   result.cov       : Estimated variance-covariance matrix of the residuals
%   result.rsquared  : R-squared value
%   result.md        : Score distances (Mahalanobis distances in x-space)
%   result.resd      : Residual distances (when there are several response variables).
%                      If univariate regression is performed, it contains the standardized residuals.
%   result.cutoff    : Cutoff values for the score and residual distances
%   result.flag      : The observations whose residual distance is larger than result.cutoff.resd
%                      receive a flag equal to zero. The other observations receive a flag 1.
%   result.class     : 'MLR' (when q > 1) or 'LS' (when q = 1)
