- Process and calculating data represented with arrays (matrices).
- Integrate many statistical and scientific methods as packages for data analysis.
- Present data with various graphical charts.
- Rapidly develop new methods of interactive data analysis. For computationally-intensive tasks, C, C++ and Fortran code can be linked and called at run time. Advanced users can write C code to manipulate R objects directly.
There are about 25 R packages (standard and recommended packages) and numerous extended packages are available through http://CRAN.R-project.org/, the CRAN (Comprehensive R Archive Network) website is a family of mirror sites for downloading extended R packages.
Download R: Windows, MacOS X, Linux versions. R is part of many Linux distributions, you should check with your Linux package management system in addition to the link above.
Using "R for Windows" as an example, just download the base subdirectory for beginners of R.
Install R for the first time |
I choose English since most of documents are written in English. |
After installed R software, just click the "R icon" on the desktop screen. Note, the UI language is still "Chinese Traditional" although I choose "En" while instalating R.
It's easy to change setting before starting R. Press mouse right-click and select "property (內容)", and add the argument "LANGUAGE=en" after the Rgui.exe.
Next time you start R, the GUI will become English version.
Finally, set the GUI arguments as your desired. |
