I WROTE THIS FUNCTION BELOW test <- function(x, ...) UseMethod('test', x)

THE PROBLEM OCCURS IN THE FUNCTION 'model.tables.aovlist' BUT i CANNOT FIGURE IT OUT WHY IT HAPPENS MANY THANKS Enio Jelihovschi Universidade Estadual de Santa Cruz [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ 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.
