An Introduction to R ¶

This is an introduction to R (“GNU S”), a language and environment for statistical computing and graphics. R is similar to the award-winning¹ S system, which was developed at Bell Laboratories by John Chambers et al. It provides a wide variety of statistical and graphical techniques (linear and nonlinear modelling, statistical tests, time series analysis, classification, clustering, ...).

This manual provides information on data types, programming elements, statistical modelling and graphics.

This manual is for R, version 4.5.0 Under development.
