-We'll come back to the details of dispatch in Section \@ref(method-dispatch), for now note that S3 methods are functions with a special naming scheme, `generic.class()`. For example, the `factor` method for the `print()` generic is called `print.factor()`. You should never call the method directly, but instead rely on the generic to find it for you.

+We'll get back to dispatch details in Section \@ref(method-dispatch), for now note that S3 methods are functions with a special naming scheme, `generic.class()`. For example, the appropriate method for working with an object of class `factor` and which is dispatched by the generic `print()` is `print.factor()`. You should never call the method directly, but rely on the generic to find it for you.
 Generally, you can identify a method by the presence of `.` in the function name, but there are a number of important functions in base R that were written before S3, and hence use `.` to join words. If you're unsure, check with `sloop::ftype()`:
