> Yes, exactly, very well found, Georgi! I'm sorry Martin, but I don't understand your point here. I'm assuming that you want the (S3) matrix, x, to be converted to an (S4) Matrix. However, this is not a question of method dispatch, as such. But rather a question of type conversion (integer to numeric to complex, etc). Specifically, can/should automatic type conversion, convert an S3 data type to an S4 data type, even where user-defined data types are involved? ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
