Hi Alex,
There are a couple ways. You can install the SOS package, which has
some nice search features. You can also use R's built in
RSiteSearch("some relevant keywords"), also, if you think you are
close to what the function should be called, you can try:
> apropos("cov")
[1] "ability.cov" "cov" "cov2cor" "covratio" "cov.wt"
[6] "discoveries" "recover" "vcov"
which turns up functions with your search term in them. To answer
your question about the function, see ?cov .
Cheers,
Josh
