Right. In S, it defaults to F, and means that lm refuses to fit a
reduced-rank model.  R always will (and have NA components in the
coefficients).

Hi all,

what does the option singular.ok in funtion lm() means? I took a look in
the help page of lm() and found:

singular.ok      logical, defaulting to TRUE. FALSE is not yet
implemented.

Thanks, Sven
