R can be considered as a - different implementation of S. There are some important differences, - but much code written for S runs unaltered under R. - - R provides a wide variety of statistical (linear and nonlinear modelling, - classical statistical tests, time-series analysis, classification, - clustering, ...) and graphical techniques, and is highly extensible. - The S language is often the vehicle of choice for research in statistical - methodology, and R provides an Open Source route to participation in that - activity. - - One of R's strengths is the ease with which well-designed - publication-quality plots can be produced, including mathematical symbols - and formulae where needed. Great care has been taken over the defaults for - the minor design choices in graphics, but the user retains full control. - -WWW: http://www.R-project.org/ |
