Hi, A number of people have suggested "I read the manuals"...
Could someone help me by telling me where the primary start point is please? For example, I am interested in writing functions with variable number of arguments - where should I start to look? "An introduction to R" only show a brief example - with no pointer to where to find further data. I can't do ?xxx from R console in most cases - as I don't know what the function name is that I am looking for!!! People have helped me find "substitute" to get some metadata out - BUT how could I have found that without guidance from nice people in Nabble? Any help on this very much appreciated. -- View this message in context: http://n4.nabble.com/Help-on-getting-help-from-manuals-tp1590323p1590323.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
