Why can't Anove (car package) see the data?
At the end of the 'Details:' section of the help on Anova (car
package), it states:
The standard R `anova' function calculates sequential (type-I)
tests. These rarely test meaningful hypotheses.
So I thought I'd try it. However, I was perplexed to get this
message:
Browse[1]> Anova.glm(leaf.glm1, type ="II")
Error in terms.formula(formula, data = data) :
Object "use.df" not found
The regular anova function can find use.df. What could make it
invisible to Anova? I thought it might be because terms.formula took
an argument x and I already had an object x, but changing its name
didn't help. I spent some time searching the archives but found no
mention of this problem. I read some of the car package help files,
but didn't notice a reference to what is different in the way data is
seen.
The example given in the help file does work, but it uses a data
object which is in the working directory. That's not practicable
within a function. So I'd appreciate other ideas.
