R: Tilde Operator (original) (raw)

tilde {base} R Documentation

Description

Tilde is used to separate the left- and right-hand sides in a model formula.

Usage

y ~ model

Arguments

y, model symbolic expressions.

Details

The left-hand side is optional, and one-sided formulae are used in some contexts.

A formula has mode [call](../../base/help/call.html). It can be subsetted by[[: the components are ~, the left-hand side (if present) and the right-hand side in that order. (Thus one-sided formulae have two components.)
