sd standard deviation of the elements of the input vector
cor correlation
quantile quantiles
read.table reads delimited text files
write.table writes delimited text files
save save R objects
load load R objects
apply, tapply, lapply functions for applying functions over set margins, apply is for arrays, tapply for data.frames and lapply for lists
merge merges two data.frames, equivalent of SQL joins

library loads packages
