As best I understand it, colSums (and associated functions) in S+ 6 are
optimized functions (calling special C routines) for doing simple matrix
math. For example, it seems like (in S+):

all.equal(colSums(m), apply(m, 2, sum))

should be TRUE for any matrix m. It also seems like colSums (and its brethren)
are very fast.

My question: Are there equivalents to colSums in R?

Thanks,

Dave Kane
