Windows Vista
R 2.10.1




Does the following use of groupedData and lme produce an analysis with both 
random intercept and slope, or only random slope?


zz<-groupedData(y~time |  Subject,data=data.frame(data),
              labels = list( x = "Time",
                y = "y" ),
              units = list( x = "(yr)", y = "(mm)")
)
plot(zz)

fit10<-lme(zz)
summary(fit10)
