In which even the functions of the object appear.


There was no attached image or images. That is because you have not carefully read the information provided here: https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help and in the Posting Guide.

Alex replied to me and failed to include the mailing list. He again attached images. One of these images showed a fragment of a console session where a `confbands` function was displayed in part. It had a parameter of newdata and used the function `mydeltaMethod`, so I did a google search on "confbands newdata mdeltamethod" and found this page of code:


http://arsilva.weebly.com/uploads/2/1/0/0/21008856/function_confbands.r


It matches the image exactly, so I think I have identified the missing function.

Alex: You still do need to read the Posting Guide and the list Info page. The next respondent on rhelp may not be as forgiving of your sins against protocol.

R is composed of packages. You need to know which package the "confbands" function came from before we can identify the cause of its absence.

It could be that you have not installed or loaded the package into your session. Or it could be that the author of the package in which it used to be made available has not maintained it on CRAN. Or perhaps it was never on CRAN and was instead on some blog or class assignment where it was defined upstream and you failed to notice it. All these situations have been seen on Rhelp posted by persons claiming that a function has gone missing.
