[R] GLM Gamma Family logLik formula?

2009-07-15 Thread Skipper Seabold
Hello all, I was wondering if someone can enlighten me as to the difference between the logLik in R vis-a-vis Stata for a GLM model with the gamma family. Stata calculates the loglikelihood of the model as (in R notation) some equivalent function of -1/scale *
