Dear all

I was looking at the aov documentation page and came across the following which seems like a contradiction to me:

" This provides a wrapper to |lm| for fitting linear models to balanced or unbalanced experimental designs." (I presume 'This' refers to aov)

and

"|aov| is designed for balanced designs, and the results can be hard to interpret without balance"

So, do I use it for unbalanced designs?

Thanks,
AJ
