 ### Overview
The **`as.table()` function** in R is used to convert a matrix object to an object of class `table`.

## Syntax
Let's view the syntax:



## Parameter 
The `as.table()` function takes a single and mandatory parameter, **`x`**, which represents the matrix object.

## Return value
The `as.table()` function returns an object of class `table`.

## Example
Let's look at an example below:

# using the matrix() function to create a matrix
mymatrix <- matrix(
    c("Theo","Chidalu","David","Marshal","Sammy","Pedro"), #data
    nrow = 2, # number of rows
    ncol = 2, # number of columns
    byrow = FALSE, # matrix filling 
    dimname = list(
        c("row1", "row2"),
        c("Col1", "Col2")
        ) # names of rows and columns
    )
    
# implementing the as.table() function
mytable = as.table(mymatrix)
mytable

# checking the object classes
class(mymatrix)
class(mytable)

## Explanation
* **Lines 1 to 11**: We create a matrix, `mymatrix`, in which we use the `matrix()` function and its various parameter values to make the `mymatrix` become a `2 × 2` matrix (2 rows and 2 columns matrix) and also with their dimension names (`row1`, `row2`, `col1`, and `col2`).

* **Line 14**: We implement the `as.table()` function on the matrix `mymatrix`. The result is assigned to a variable `mytable`.

* **Line 15**: We print the variable `mytable`.
* **Line 18**: We use the `class()` function to obtain and print the object class of the variable `mymatrix`.

* **Line 19**: We use the `class()` function to obtain and print the object class of the variable `mytable`.
