[R] R: On using gam(gam).

[Liu Song]

Dear R users,

I am using R-function gam(gam) to fit additive models,
more specifically partially linear models.
Say, Y~x1+x2+s(z,df=d).
Is there a way to extract the smoother matrix for the smoothing term
z, or is there a way to extract the overall hat matrix H such that
Y_hat=HY.
Thank you in advance!

Sincerely,
Song
