Summarize an Analysis of Variance Model

Description

Summarize an analysis of variance model.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'aov':
summary(object, intercept = FALSE, split,
         expand.split = TRUE, keep.zero.df = TRUE, ...)

## S3 method for class 'aovlist':
summary(object, ...)

Arguments

object An object of class "aov" or "aovlist".
intercept logical: should intercept terms be included?
split an optional named list, with names corresponding to terms in the model. Each component is itself a list with integer components giving contrasts whose contributions are to be summed.
expand.split logical: should the split apply also to interactions involving the factor?
keep.zero.df logical: should terms with no degrees of freedom be included?
... Arguments to be passed to or from other methods, for summary.aovlist including those for summary.aov.

Value

An object of class c("summary.aov", "listof") or "summary.aovlist" respectively.

Note

The use of expand.split = TRUE is little tested: it is always possible to set it to FALSE and specify exactly all the splits required.
