【描述】
List all available methods for a S3 and S4 generic function, or all methods for an S3 or S4 class.
关于S3和S4的介绍见https://www.jianshu.com/p/1caf31c2289d
【用法】
methods(generic.function, class)
.S3methods(generic.function, class, envir=parent.frame())
S3 method for class 'MethodsFunction'
format(x, byclass = attr(x, "byclass"), ...)
S3 method for class 'MethodsFunction'
print(x, byclass = attr(x, "byclass"), ...)
【参数】
generic.function
a generic function, or a character string naming a generic function.
class
a symbol or character string naming a class: only used if generic.function is not supplied.
envir
the environment in which to look for the definition of the generic function, when the generic function is passed as a character string.
x
typically the result of methods(..), an R object of S3 class "MethodsFunction", see ‘Value’ below.
byclass
an optional logical allowing to override the "byclass" attribute determining how the result is printed, see ‘Details’.
...
potentially further arguments passed to and from methods; unused currently.

Warning message:
In .S3methods(generic.function, class, envir) :
function 'is' appears not to be S3 generic; found functions that look like S3 methods
