ll(pos=1, unit="KB", digits=0, dim=FALSE, sort=FALSE, class=NULL,
   invert=FALSE, ...)

Arguments

pos
environment position number, environment name, data frame, list, model, or any object that is.list.
unit
unit for displaying object size: "bytes", "KB", "MB", or first letter.
digits
number of decimals to display when rounding object size.
dim
whether object dimensions should be returned.
sort
whether elements should be sorted by name.
class
character vector for limiting the output to specified classes.
invert
whether to invert the class filter, so specified classes are excluded.
...

ll(all=TRUE)
ll("package:base")
ll("package:base", class="function", invert=TRUE)

data(infert)
ll(infert)
model <- glm(case~spontaneous+induced, family=binomial, data=infert)
ll(model, dim=TRUE)
ll(model, sort=TRUE)
ll(model$family)
