\title{Extract Dimensions from an Object}
\usage{
Dim(object, \dots)
}
\alias{Dim}
\alias{Dim.default}
\arguments{
\item{object}{any object for which dimensions can be extracted.}
\item{\dots}{some methods for this generic function require additional
arguments.}
}
\description{
This function is generic; method functions can be written to handle
specific classes of objects. Classes which already have methods for
this function include: \code{"\link{corSpatial}"}, \code{"\link{corStruct}"},
\code{"pdCompSymm"}, \code{"pdDiag"}, \code{"pdIdent"}, \code{"pdMat"},
and \code{"pdSymm"}.
}
\value{
will depend on the method function used; see the appropriate documentation.

\note{
If \code{dim} allowed more than one argument, there would be no
need for this generic function.
