Tutorials on object-oriented programming in R [closed]

by

Are there good tutorials on object-oriented programming in R?

It would be great if it included the following:

  • how to define a class;
  • differences between S3 and S4 classes;
  • operator overloading (I’d like to be able to write a+b where a and b are instances of the class I have in mind).

Answer

Hadley Wickham’s wiki on devtools is a great resource for the necessary information in a concise form. However, if you want an exhaustive resource, the R language manual’s OOP section may be helpful. I am sure more experienced members will have better suggestions.
