This document discusses various functions in R for exploring and manipulating dataframes, including dim(), nrow(), ncol(), str(), summary(), names(), head(), tail(), edit(), View(), merge(), join(), concatenate(), read.table(), and exploring data analysis techniques like box plots, histograms, scatter plots, run charts, bar charts, density plots and Pareto charts. It provides examples of using these functions to extract information from dataframes like dimensions, structure, column names, subsets of rows and columns, and combining multiple dataframes.
