Dear R users, I'm still a beginner and I'm wondering whether S3 or S4 methods really differ for my use.
I understand more or less the distinction between the 2 classes from the documentation I've read but the big question is: _*does it make a difference in practice**?*_ Up to now, I've worked without noticing anything, but it might be important to differentiate and to know which one to use and how. Thank you for your help Regards, Ivan -- Ivan CALANDRA PhD Student University of Hamburg Biozentrum Grindel und Zoologisches Museum Abt.
