Var: Variance-Covariance Matrices

Description

Computes variance-covariance matrices or variances for model objects or data. The default methods uses the function var.

Usage

Var(object, ...)

Var.default(object, diagonal=F, ...)

Var.lm(object, diagonal=F)

Var.glm(object, diagonal=F)

Arguments

object

an object for which the covariance matrix is desired.

...

arguments to be passed to var (e.g., na.rm).

diagonal

if TRUE, return only the variances.

Value

• A variance-covariance matrix or a vector of variances.
