peculiar matrices
As far as I can tell from reading The Fine Documentation
(R Language Definition and Intro to R), matrices are supposed
to be of homogeneous types. Yet giving matrix() an inhomogeneous
list seems to work, although it produces a peculiar object:
v = list(1:3,4,5,"a")
m = matrix(v,nrow=2)
m
[,1] [,2]
[1,] Integer,3 5
[2,] 4 "a"
m[1,]
[[1]]
[1] 1 2 3
[[2]]
