delcol() of Splus

2 messages · Ji Zhu, Brian Ripley

Dear all,

There is this delcol() function in Splus.  It is a support function for
drop1.lm().  But it seems it disappears from R.  Could some one tell me
whether there is any equivalent function of delcol() in R or is there any
other way that I can implement its functionality?  Your help is highly
appreciated!!!

Regards,

-Ji

As ?delcol in Splus says

   This is support for the function drop1.lm(). It is not intended to be
   called directly by users.

so you should not be using it (in R or S-PLUS).

R has a different implementation of the internals of many functions.
It is not a question of `it disappears': R is not a version of S-PLUS but a
separate implementation of the S language.
