glmDS2(formula, family, beta.vect, offset, weights, data)

Arguments

formula	an object of class formula.
family	a character, description of the error distribution and link function to used in the model.
beta.vect	a string character: the starting values for the parameters in the linear predictor.
offset	a character, null or a numeric vector that can be used to specify an a priori known component to be included in the linear predictor during fitting.
weights	a character, the name of an optional vector of 'prior weights' to be used in the fitting process. Should be NULL or a numeric vector.
data	a character, the name of an optional data frame containing the variables in in the formula.
