You can tell what a function does by looking at its help page, eg:
?duplicate
There is no such function in R (1.9.0), so I don't see how you came
across that function name.
R performs a deep copy "on demand", and generally you should not worry
about this, just use the assignment operator "<-".
PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
and the "Introduction to R", and the FAQ.
Best,
Tamas
