Solving the mixed model equation system

results.csv

The file contains the solutions for the mixed model equation system. The file has four columns: "factor name","sub-factor name","factor level id","solution". Note that "factor name"s are derived according to the lmt factor naming convention, and "sub-factor name"s are user-defined and are extracted from the equation system. Further, the "factor level id" is the original as provided by the data, pedigree, etc. For variables undergoing polynomial expansions, e.g. sub-factor c in

 y=x*b+age(t(co(p(1,2))))*c+id*u(v(my_var(1)))

the sub-factor name will be expanded as well by _id , where "id" is the polynomial id. For the above example c would be expanded to c_1 and c_2 .

The file has as many records the system has equations. Fixed factor levels which have been omitted due to rank deficiencies are not printed.
