[R] QR factorization for aov

2013-06-11 Thread Mimi Celis
I am looking at the aov function in R. I see that it uses a modified QR factorization routine dqrdc2 based on the Linpack routine dqrdc. Pivoting is done different than the original Linpack function. My questions: * Why is it necessary to modify the pivoting strategy? Something necessary f
