For whatever reason, other statistical software (like Stata, which I also use) is not just easier to search for help for, but also tends to have more actually helpful help when you do find it. R is quickly becoming the programming language for data analysis and statistics. Whether applied for a client or as part of our self-started initiatives, this practice requires the basic skills of a “data scientist” (data analysis, information architecture, software engineering and creativity) along with a capacity to engage at the intersections with a wide variety of professionals, from physicists and engineers to . It is highly extensible and has object oriented features and strong graphical capabilities. R (an implementation of S) is graphs (with R source code). Introduction R is a programming language and a software suite used for data analysis, statistical computing and data visualization. Professional Software Developer, Amateur Human Being. Enter R, a language that has gotten quite popular over the past few years. Code School courses can be a little simplistic if you have programming experience, but since I haven't ever looked at R, it seems appropriate. Home · About Code School's “Try R”. Popular graphics packages for R include lattice, ggplot2, and RGL or rggobi for more complex data visualization. Maindonald and Braun, Data Analysis and Graphic using R If you want to learn higher level programming, I've gotten a lot out of Software for Data Analysis by John Chambers. Quadrigram is a visual programming language particularly designed for iterative data exploration and explanation; picture by Fabien Girardin. I feel like 2013 holds a lot of data analysis for me, so I'd like to start the year off by learning a language that excels at statistical analysis and visualization. R is a programming language and a software suite used for data analysis, statistical computing and data visualization.
