It is fairly easy just to run a normal regression in R, as R automatically know how to code dummies as soon as they are of the type "factor". However this type of coding also implies that on category from each variable is used as a baseline, making it hard to interpret.

Until now i have tried:

Until now i have tried:

gm <- mean(tapply(ds$ln.crea, ds$month,  mean))
model <- lm(ln.crea ~ month + month*month + year + year*year, data = ds, contrasts = list(gm = contr.sum))

Call:
lm(formula = ln.crea ~ month + month * month + year + year * 
    year, data = ds, contrasts = list(gm = contr.sum))
