Non-visible functions are asterisked > glm generates an object of class "glm", so tick! glm.nb generates an object of class ... "negbin", so tick! Because the methods are starred, though, they will not be directly accessible. (I am to blame for choosing class name "negbin" for objects generated by glm.nb, but it's far too late to do anything about it now!)

(It's not clear from the associated help pages, and I've found no reference from searching the R help mailing list) Thank you, Kelly Young ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
