[R] advice on classes/methods/extending classes

[Joshua Wiley]

Hi Erin,

One good option would be the official manual:
http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-exts.html

It depends to an extent, I think, on what types of methods you would
like to work with and use.  FWIW, I have and really enjoy both S
Programming by Venables & Ripley (mostly S3 methods and general
programming, though I am sure that poor summary does not do it
justice) and Software for Data Analysis by John Chambers (S4 methods).

HTH,

Josh
