In a real example I was trying to remove the class from the result of table, just because
it was to be used as a building block for other things and a simple integer vector seemed
likely to be most efficient.
I'm puzzled as to why unclass doesn't work.
> zed <- table(1:5)
> class(zed)
[1] "table"
> class(unclass(zed))
[1] "array"
> class(unclass(unclass(unclass(zed))))
[1] "array"
> class(as.vector(zed))
[1] "integer"
> sessionInfo()
