terms Model TermsThe function terms is a generic function which can be used to extract terms objects from various kinds of R data objects.
terms(x, ...)
x | object used to select a method to dispatch. |
... | further arguments passed to or from other methods. |
There are methods for classes "aovlist", and "terms" "formula" (see terms.formula): the default method just extracts the terms component of the object, or failing that a "terms" attribute (as used by model.frame).
There are print and labels methods for class "terms": the latter prints the term labels (see terms.object).
An object of class c("terms", "formula") which contains the terms representation of a symbolic model. See terms.object for its structure.
