[R] an incredibly trivial question about nls

[Bert Gunter]

1. Why? What do you think it tells you? (The number of parameters in a
NONlinear model is probably not what you think it is).

2. ?deviance

3. You've been posting all this time and still didn't try
stats:::print.nls  ?? -- which is where you would find the answer.

Cheers,
Bert
