Hi,

I'm trying to analyse some data I have imported into R from a .csv file but when I carry out the aov command the results show only one degree of freedom when there should be 14. Does anyone know why? I'd really appreciate some
help, the data is pasted below.


To me this appears likely to be homework. If so then please read your college's rules regarding academic honesty. In any case, please read the Posting Guide.


/The imported table looks ike this this:/

       Order Transect Sample Abundance
1  Coleoptera        1      1        13
2  Coleoptera        1      2        12
3  Coleoptera        1      3        11
4  Coleoptera        1      4        13
5  Coleoptera        1      5         6
6  Coleoptera        2      1        18

14 Coleoptera        3      4        32
15 Coleoptera        3      5        29

/The command I am using is this:/

anova2<-aov(Abundance~Transect,data=beetle)

/The results come out like this:/

Df Sum Sq Mean Sq F value  Pr(>F)
Transect     1 250.00 250.000  7.2394 0.01852 *
Residuals   13 448.93  34.533
