Examples

###  Fit an association model with homogeneous row-column effects
rc1 <- gnm(Freq ~ r + c + Diag(r,c) + MultHomog(r, c),
           family = poisson, data = friend)
rc1

## Not run: 
###  Extend to two-component interaction
rc2 <- update(rc1, . ~ . + MultHomog(r, c, inst = 2),
              etastart = rc1$predictors)
rc2

## End(Not run)
