Utility Functions for Working with lme4 Formula Objects

Description

Utility functions for working with lme4 formula objects. The function ma_lme4_formula_terms decomposes an lme4 formula into several parts for further processing.

Usage

ma_lme4_formula_terms(formula)

ma_lme4_formula_design_matrices(formula, data, start_index=0, formula_terms=NULL,
        only_design_matrices=FALSE)

Arguments

formula	An R formula object
data	Data frame
start_index	Starting index for cluster identifiers
formula_terms	Optional argument with processed formula terms using the function ma_lme4_formula_terms
only_design_matrices	Logical indicating whether only design matrices should be created

Value

List with several entries
