In the second of a three-part series, David and Brad build on their first article on R, a rich statistical environment, released as free software. R is both a strongly functional programming language and a general environment for statistical exploration of data sets. Now that our data is shipshape, we will delve into the functionality of the language.
The syntax of this language reminds me of Matlab.
seems a lot better than octave for statistic. BTW does it use gnuplot for the graphics?
