This particular dialog combines functionality that comes in different
functions in R. That is gathered and printed in a single table, because
that simply seems useful. Other dialogs will wrap just a single
function.

The R function for "length of sample" does not return a named column
at all, just a number. The function itself is called length(), however,
which is what Meik is referring to, in this case.

Calling this function "length()" is pretty standard in the context of
programming. In many, but not all use cases, this will correspond to the
meaning of "N". In other cases, "n" would be more appropriate. That
really depends on the layout, and meaning of the data. (Consider "long"
format vs "wide" format of repeated measurements, for just one example).

So that's why I think "length (N)" might be a good mix in order to
convey the potential meaning, without making too many assumptions.
