[R] Problems with lm()

[Christoph Scherber]

Dear Hsin-Ya,

The problem here is that subject is a factor with 14 levels, and sequence again is a factor with 2 
levels; so the subject:sequence interaction already uses up another (13*1)=13 d.f.; given that there 
are only 28 replicates, it is not surprising that there are no residual degrees of freedom left!

What do you intend to test with your model? Maybe I can be of help to solve the problem

Best wishes
Christoph
