Usage

fparse(expr)

Arguments

expr

A legitimate expression in the form y ~ x1 , etc. (see details)

Details

The basic formula input given as DV1 + DV2 ~ IV1 + IV2 + (IV3) + I(IV4^2) - IV5 will be parsed to return 2 DVs (1 and 2), two normal IVs (1 and 2), a mediator (IV3) a quadratic (IV4) and a variable to be partialed (IV5). See the various examples in setCor and mediate.

Value

`y`	A list of elements from the left side of the formula
`x`	A list of elements from the right side of the formula
`m`	A list of those elements of the formula included in ()
`prod`	A list of elements separated by a * sign
`ex`	A list of elements marked by I()

fparse(DV  ~ IV1 + IV2 * IV2*IV3 + (IV4) + I(IV5^2) )
