Hi Bert, Thanks for the message. So far I know we can test whether my sample 
size in my analysis is enough or not. It is also post hoc property. For 
example, we can calculate standard deviations, error variance  etc in the data 
sets, and then we can use them to determine whether the sample size was enough 
or not with certain level of alpha and power. we can do it is some of the 
statistical programs, but I was not aware in R. thanks KG
