[R] Programming objects in R

[Tom Backer Johnsen]

This is interesting.  The fact that there are so few texts on the 
subject probably means that very few are using OO programming methods in 
R.

I will probably look in the Python direction.  Pity.  I would have 
preferred R.

The book is frustrating to use and I often have to dig to find simple usage cases. .  Unfortunately there seems to be no other book which contains the same info.  I've been hoping O'Reilly puts out an R programming book but nothing yet.
