 Dear Sir or Madam,
 i want to use the var.test() (f.test()) for n samples.
 But in R the var.test() can only used for variances of two samples. In the

 samples from normal populations.
 I need a variance test for n samples. It will be great, if you tell me the 
 which test i can use in R for this problem.
 Thank you for the help.

You can take a look at ?bartlett.test (which is listed in the See Also section 
of ?var.test) or perhaps ?fligner.test for a non-parametric method.

Hello, Sait,

take, for example, a look at bartlett.test(), but keep in mind that 
Bartlett's test is quite sensitive to deviations from normality. Levene's 
test (e.g., in leveneTest() in package car) is said to be more robust.

See also the levene test from the car package, and for a single outlying 
variance see the cochran test from the outliers package.
