   Hi

   I would like to know if the "penalty associated with the fit" that is
   printed by the summary.ssanova function is the smoothing parameter
   (\lambda) of the criterion function that's minimized to find f.

   Thanks

   EJ

No, it is the whole penalty term, n*lambda times the integrated square
second derivative IF you are using the cubic spline for univariate
smoothing.  Although it is provided, I don't expect it be used much.
