S3 Class - An Introduction to S3 Classes in R

Details

S3 classes are baked in to R; their influence permeates the language and how we interact with it. This brief talk will introduce S3 classes, and why they are relevant to all R users. We will cover their definition, interpretation, construction, and manipulation.
