The 'var' module is designed to analyze size variation. It performs the following analyses: - Quantile boxes of size variation - Oneway ANOVA, Qst - Parametric and non-parametric comparisons of means and variances - Non-parametric nested ANOVA (two groups, two subgroups each) - Repeatability - Help to use R VAR can also compute the repeatability of shape variables entered as principal components of shape. ------------------------------------------------- INPUT FILES ------------------------------------------------- if size: coord_[date]_CS.txt or coord_[date]_OTL_PER.txt or coord_[date]_OTL_ARE.txt if shape (only for a repeatability study): coord_[date]_RW.txt or coord_[date]_OTL_FOGnefcp.txt ------------------------------------------------- OUTPUT FILES ------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- File format ------------------------------------------------- The CLIC data internal format is as follows: - The first row is a free comment, next rows are the data. - The first row is mandatory. - Data (next rows) are organized as a table without headers - Empty rows are allowed, except the first one (see above). - Columns are separated by a tabulation. Exceptions to this CLIC data format are 1. The CLIC data base format ('..._OTL_DB.txt'): there are headers! 2. The CLIC distance matrix format ('..._MAHAphylip.txt', etc.): except for the first row (the comment), its format depends on the external software to which it is destinated.
