`x`	object of class `data.frame`.
`...`	optional arguments to `print` or `plot` methods.
`digits`	the minimum number of significant digits to be used: see `print.default`.
`quote`	logical, indicating whether or not entries should be printed with surrounding quotes.

`row.names`	logical (or character vector), indicating whether (or what) row names should be printed.

(dd <- data.frame(x = 1:8, f = gl(2,4), ch = I(letters[1:8])))
