Dear R-experts, I have a question on the formulas used in the gam function of the mgcv package.
I am trying to understand the relationships between: y~s(x1)+s(x2)+s(x3)+s(x4) and y~s(x1,x2,x3,x4) Does the latter contain the former? what about the smoothers of all interaction terms? I have (tried to) read the manual pages of gam, formula.gam, smooth.terms, linear.functional.terms but could not understand properly.
