Description

A simple wrapper for Multivariate Analysis of Variance on the matrix of harmonic coefficients in a Coe object.

Usage

manova.Coe(Coe, fac, retain, drop=0)

Arguments

Coe

a Coe object.

fac

factor defining which groups of individuals to compare.

retain

numeric. The number of harmonics to retain.

drop

numeric. The number of harmonics to drop.

Value

• The MANOVA summary is printed and also returned invisibly.

Details

The number of harmonic coefficient can not be higher than the number of outlines ; you can specify it with retain and drop (see coeff.sel) or let this method select the highest possible number of harmonics.
