_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Returns the deviance of a fitted model object.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     deviance(x, ...)
     deviance.lm (x, ...)
     deviance.glm(x, ...)
     deviance.mlm(x, ...)
     deviance.default(x, ...)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

       x: an object for which the deviance is desired.

     ...: additional optional argument.

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     This is a generic function which can be used to extract deviances
     for fitted models.  Consult the individual modeling functions for
     details details on how to use this function.

     There is no default method for this function.

_V_a_l_u_e:

     The value of the deviance extracted from the object `x'.

_S_e_e _A_l_s_o:

     `df.residual', `extractAIC', `glm', `lm'.
