[ddj] Beginner's guide to the R Project for Statistical Computing

Thu Jun 6 14:27:03 UTC 2013

Hi everyone,

Some of you may find the R Project for Statistical Computing useful. The R
statistics language is great for data analysis and it's free.

Also, because it's a programmable environment that uses command-line
scripting, you can store a series of complex data-analysis steps in R. This
function actually lets you re-use the work that you did on other similar
data as opposed to having to re-do everything in a point-and-click
interface.

You can take a look at the beginner's guide
here<http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9239625/Beginner_s_guide_to_R_Introduction>as
well as at the list of helpful resources that are provided
here<http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9239799/Beginner_s_guide_to_R_Useful_resources>
.

Have a nice day!

Cheers,
Hanna
