[R] Reading help functions

[Eric Berger]

Hi Pedro,
Reading R help pages definitely takes practice.
Here's a tip: when you bring up the help page, scroll down to the bottom to
see if there are examples (there usually are.)
I find that seeing examples often provides enough information to let you
figure out what you need to do.

HTH,
Eric
