[R] Newbie with lme

[Jordan Howarth]

Using Version 0.64.1 (May 8, 1999) 


Hi,

Last time I used a stats package it was SAS so I have been struggling with the
paradigm shift to R in particular the syntax for using lme (linear mixed effects
model). My data relates to growth data and is set up with vectors for ID, several
explanatory variables and the response variable. In contrast, the data object used
in the lme examples, ie. Orthodont.R, consists of structure statements. My
previous experience with SAS is obviously causing me problems. At the risk of
asking somebody hold my hand could that somebody walk me through lme. Like I
said "Newbie" ...

TIA

Jord
