1. Type order in R command prompt (without "(" and ")") and press enter.
This will print you the body of this function, so you can inspect it. You
can save it to a file using your OS clipboard or with dump("order").

o is the variable, you've created in your previous email.

This allows you to trace the function and inspect the variables in each
step.
