Thank you very much for that excellent answer to a rather stupid question :)
I did not notice that the RSS actually increased for the model with more
parameters and so in this case the F-statistic is negative and therefore a
p-value from the F-distribution is meaningless. But I guess y

Hello,
Why does anova.lm sometimes return a p-value and at other times not ? Is
it because it recognizes nested models from non-nested ones ?
x<-seq(1,100,1)
y<-3*x+rnorm(100)
anova(lm(y~x),lm(y~x+I(x^2)),test="F")
