General Question on learning R...

         I'm looking at the same thing.  A good source for this is to
'install.packages(c("fBasics", "fCalendar", "fExtremes", "fMultivar",
"fOptions", "fPotfolio", "fractdiff", "fSeries", "its", "lme4",
"zoo"))', then 'update.packages()'.  These will install subdirectories
or folders with the indicated names "fBasics", etc., in "library" with
your R installation.  For example, in my Windows installation, I have
"D:\Program files\R\rw2010pat\library", which contains many subfolders
including ones named "fSeries".  These all contain files "*.R", which
provide sample code.

a fan of learning by example and then looking up how each function is
used.  Any websites which post sample code for R?

The largest source of example code is R itself.  If you have a command
in which you are interested, you can often just type the command and the
code will be shown to you.  Try typing:

ls()

Then:

ls

It will show you the code used to produce the result.  Also, each
command has its own example(s) in the help.
