\begin{Usage}
\begin{verbatim}
anova(object, ...)
print(anova.object)
\end{verbatim}
\end{Usage}
\begin{Arguments}
\begin{ldescription}
\item[\texttt{object}] an object containing the results returned
by a model fitting function (e.g. \texttt{lm} or \texttt{glm}).
\item[\texttt{...}] additional objects of the same type.
\end{ldescription}
\end{Arguments}
\begin{Value}
This (generic) function returns an object of class \texttt{anova}.
These objects represent analysis-of-variance and analysis-of-deviance tables.
When given a single argument it produces a table which
tests whether the model terms are significant.

When given a sequence of objects, \texttt{anova} tests
the models against one another in the order specified.

The print method for \texttt{anova} objects prints
tables in a ``pretty'' form.\end{Value}
