Computes the volume of a spatial object such as a three-dimensional box.
volume(x)An object whose volume will be computed.
The numerical value of the volume of the object.
This function computes the volume of an object such as a three-dimensional box.
The function volume is generic, with methods for
the classes "box3" (three-dimensional boxes) and
"boxx" (multi-dimensional boxes).
There is also a method for the class "owin"
(two-dimensional windows), which is identical to
area.owin,
and a method for the class "linnet" of linear networks,
which returns the length of the network.
