Dear all,
I have constructed a fairly large package and I
wish to improve my code through the used of
adapted classes and methods.
1- Is it a good idea to use S4 methods and classes ?
e.g.: "setClass", "setMethod" and so forth ....
>From what I have read it seems so!
I have ordered J.M. Chambers book "programming
with data, 1998" and I have read a very short and
well writen document 13p. long entitled : Classes
and Methods in the S Language, 2001.
These documents are old, but based on R help
definition .Rd files are obviously important
references!
2- I hope I am still on the wright track... if not please let me know...
Unfortunately, it will take two to six weeks
before I receive the manual I have ordered.
3- Is there any other relevant and downloadable
document out there that I could read meanwhile to
improve my R skill using object-oriented
techniques.
Sincerly
S?bastien Durand
