Description: A beginners' guide to this free programming language designed to be good for statistics and graphics.
The basics of…R | Programming for Scientists Software development wisdom and common-sense for the scientist-programmer R is a free programming language designed to be good at statistics and graphics.  It’s downloadable for free and has lots of built-in functionality for maths, statistics and graphics operation.  It also has an active community that develops new add-on packages (libraries) and can be a good option to ask for help, if you’re really stuck with something.  The R community’s also great way to get your software ‘out there’, if you feel you’ve developed something that people would find useful.  It can be a lot slower to run than compiled languages like C and Fortran, except when using certain built-in library functions, but if you’re not CPU-limited then it’s a language with a lot to offer.
