Tap into the Global Analysis Development Community with R Open Source Software

Abstract

Operational Research makes use of diverse skills to solve real world problems. The solutions may be composed of elements from many fields, say mathematics, engineering and psychology. No single software environment has access to the range of analytical researchers as the R statistical programming language. Cutting edge statistical methodologies are available from academically sponsored repositories. And economists and psychologists rub shoulders with statisticians and geneticists. This accessible scripting language provides easy access to the work of thousands of specialists. Used it directly to run analyses and create reports, or hide it away as the engine behind a flashy interface. Isn’t it time you learned to speak R?
