Suppose I have an arbitrary R object. Is there a way to find out its format? There are 118 points, each described by two numbers. Let the name of the object be "obj" without the quotes. I can do a print (obj), but all I get is a bunch of numbers. I can do a ls.str (obj), but all I get is a bunch of numbers. Is it a data frame? A vector with 118 elements, each having two sub-elements? Or ---?
The object in question is of the class gam (Generalized Additive Model). I know how to pull out some data with the "predict" function, but, when I try to print the value of the predict function, all I get is a bunch of numbers. Also, how could I have looked this up without having to post a question here? Tom Thomas L.
