Warning! This document is not for those who are fairly new to R. I don’t want you to get scared away!
Any software system of any type is going to have a few idiosyncracies. But the R programming language has an abundance of them. These aren’t bugs, just unexpected behaviors.

This is part of a series of tutorials written by this author.
