[R] GARCH message 75

[Spencer Graves]

	  For those who "can find no documention on" the "@" operator, "?@" 
says it is used to "Extract tbe contents of a slot in a object with a 
formal class structure."  "?slot" provides more information, including 
some critical references.  The primary reference is Chambers (1998) 
Programming with Data (Springer).  This describes the "S 4" standard for 
object oriented programming in R.  Additional information can be found 
in a chapter of Venables and Ripley (2000) S Programming (Springer).

	  When I read Chambers a few years ago, I found it very difficult, 
partly because of the inconsistencies between what Chambers described 
and what was actually implemented in versions of S-Plus and to which I 
had access at the time.  That may have improved since then.

	  Hope this helps,
	  Spencer Graves
