...way, I couln't find it neither in the help, nor in the non-internal, displayable source of optim. Could anyone tell me where to find such a function? And if it really is what I need for `parscale'? Thank you!

...ed on my screen. How can I get a plot before the last plot? I mean if the object has several plots how can I get those? "gam.object <- gam(y ~ s(x,6) + z,data=gam.data) plot(gam.object,se=TRUE)" Thank you. Brad.

Hi folks: Does anyone know of a way to do (linear) hypothesis tests of parameters after fitting a maximum-likelihood model w/ optim? I can't seem to find anything like a Wald test whose documentation says it applies to optim output. Also, thanks again to everyone who gave me feedback on the robustness of ML estimation in R!

Dear group, I am trying to use gamm() in mgcv. Here's the scenario. The data frame has approx. 110K observations with information on paediatric readmission binary outcome (Y/N) and total volume of their most responsible physician as the covariate. Since any physician can have multiple patients, the data contains clustering structure which I am trying to account for. My original formula is

Please, how to fill the area under the curve? x <- c(1:10) y <- c(rnorm(10)) plot(x,y) lines(x,y) Thanks, Mauricio Cardeal
