Newbies (and others!) may find useful the R Reference Card made available by Tom Short and Rpad at http://www.rpad.org/Rpad/Rpad-refcard.pdf or through the "Contributed" link on CRAN (where some other reference cards are also linked). It categorizes and organizes a bunch of R's basic, most used functions so that they can be easily found. For example, paste() is under the "Strings" heading and expand.grid() is under "Data Creation." For newbies struggling to find the right R function as well as veterans who can't quite remember the function name, it's very handy. -- Bert Gunter Genentech Non-Clinical Statistics South San Francisco, CA "The business of the statistician is to catalyze the scientific learning process." - George E.

This is truly handy. Thanks for pointing it out. It's too bad there are five orphaned lines of text on an otherwise blank page five. Do you or does anyone know of a way to reformat this reference card to fit on four pages? Is the original TeX available?

Again, thanks for the pointer. Randall "Rnewbie" Schulz
