Determine which function is called by a generic function

Question

I would like to know how to quickly find the specific function called by a generic function for a specific object. Example : ``` library(spatial) data(redwood) K <- Kest(redwood) plot(K) ``` This is not an usual plot, it's a plot build for a `Kest()` object. So to investigate in order to find the function used, I do : ``` class(K) ``` I get "fv" "data.frame" I guess it is plot.fv ``` ?plot.fv ``` Yey ! But I'm sure there a more efficient way than guessing. Anyone ?

Accepted Answer

You can find all of the corresponding generic functions for an S3 class using methods(). So in your case:

```
methods(class=fv)
```
