The only thing you need to understand about R data structures is that everything is a vector, including scalars. You have atomic vectors and lists, which are a special kind of vector. Everything else is built on top of those.
This is an insight you gain very early in your R experience. It breaks down rather quickly. Not that it is not true — there are just too many details around the core concept.
