Hi guys,

I came across a strange phenomena and can't figure out why it happens by myself so here we go.

I got a dataframe which consists of double numbers which I want to check, row-wise if there are outliers in the rows.

So I iterate over the rows and create a glm using the numbers of that particular row. Which might look like this:

case1)
x1 x2 x3 x4 x5 x6 x7 x8 x9 x10 x11 0.00 3.91 0.00 0.00 0.00 68.03 40.39 0.00 0.00 0.00 4.11

or like this:
case2)
x1 x2 x3 x4 x5 x6 x7 x8 x9 x10 x11 1.00 1.00 1.00 1.00 1.00 1.00 1.00 1.00 1.00 1.00 5.34

or any other combination of double numbers...

however, using a glm like this:

glModel <- glm(vector ~ some_other_meta_data_which_is_double_numbers)

and testing it with:

 test.Res <- outlierTest(glModel,digits=4,cutoff=Inf,n.max=Inf)

I always get a result consisting of the desired p and q values but not if the vector I use looks like case2. There is no error message and the computation does not stop either.
However, all p and q values are produced except for the last value x11.

Any idea why this particular value gets dropped from the output of the outlierTest Method in the car package.

Here is the sessioninfo:
