doconfound2()

Usage:
doconfound2(p:fctrs,k:blcks or cfdout:str or basis:mat [,confeff:T]\
       [,aber:T] [,assign:T]) fctrs and blocks positive integer
	scalars, str the output from choosedef2, mat a basis
	matrix for confounding



Keywords: confounding, design, factorial
doconfound2() is a front end combining many of the tasks of confound2(),
choosedef2(), and aberration2().  There are two sorts of arguments:
those that determine the design, and those that determine what is
printed.  All arguments are keyword phrases.

To determine the design, you may enter p and k, or cfdout, or basis.
Using p and k says to create a new design in 2^p treatments (p factors)
with 2^k blocks.  The other options use a previously created design,
either cfdout, the output from a previous usage of choosedef2(), or
basis, a k by p matrix of 0's and 1's indicating the defining contrasts
for the design.

The remaining three arguments determine what is printed:
confeff:T      Print all confounded effects
aber:T         Print the number of confounded effects by word length
assign:T       Print the assignment of treatments to blocks.
