Classes which already have methods for this function include all 'pdMat', 'corStruct', and 'varFunc' classes, 'reStruct', and 'modelStruct'. _U_s_a_g_e: coef(object, ...) <- value _A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s: object: any object representing a fitted model, or, by default, any object with a 'coef' component. ...: some methods for this generic function may require additional arguments. value: a value to be assigned to the coefficients associated with 'object'. _V_a_l_u_e: will depend on the method function; see the appropriate documentation. _A_u_t_h_o_r(_s): Jose Pinheiro Jose.Pinheiro@pharma.novartis.com and Douglas Bates bates@stat.wisc.edu _S_e_e _A_l_s_o: 'coef' _E_x_a_m_p_l_e_s: ## see the method function documentation
