[R] Error in Quantile function

[David Winsemius]

Please show us what you get when you execute:

str(spead)
typeof(spread)
class(spread)

It is doubtful that either of your theories is correct. It's more  
likely that spread is a more complex object than you realize. We need  
to know what spread looks like to the R interpreter in the environment  
where it is being called.
