Abstract

Now that you have learned the elementary commands in S-Plus and many ways of applying them, it is time to discover its advanced functionalities. This chapter introduces loops, deals more intensively with writing functions, covers debugging matters, and gives a short introduction to what object-oriented programming means in the S-Plus environment.

“Writing program code is a good way of debugging your thinking.”

Bill Venables on S-News
