The R Programming Language

I read this on OSNews.com.  IBM, ever vigilant in creating and then sharing with users, has released the R Programming Language.  Mostly to be used with statistical applications, this feature rich environment includes lots of tools to get you started.

That’s some convoluted code to create graph that you can do in excel in about 1 minute Cheesy  I don’t really care for the “->” assignment rather then the good old “=” sign.  I think there are a lot of graphical data warehousing tools available today that can do what “R” does via a more “point and click” method; especially if you’re a business that is doing trend/market analysis type reporting in support of strategic business decision making. Unless my core business is statistical reporting, not sure this is something I’d jump all over.

yeah I agree with you scott...those are the graphs that you can create through excel.  
 
The advantage of R programming is that it is available in compiled form for many computer platforms like  Linux, Windows, Mac OS X, and Mac OS Classic.
