Dear all,

I want to select a linear model by means of a forward selection procedure, adding only the main terms, that is x1+x2+x3+...xn.
Is there a fast way to specify all the main terms without writing each one?

For example:

linear <- step(lm(resp~1,data=dati),scope=(upper="all main effects",lower=~1),direction="forward")

Thanks,

Stefano
