     This function is generic; method functions can be writ-
     ten to handle specific classes of objects. Currently,
     only a `groupedData' method is available.

_U_s_a_g_e_:

     collapse(object, ...)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s_:

  object: an object to be collapsed, usually a data frame.

     ...: some methods for the generic may require addi-
          tional arguments.

_V_a_l_u_e_:

     will depend on the method function used; see the appro-
     priate documentation.

_S_e_e _A_l_s_o_:
