What is R ?

5

• A programming language for statistics, analytics, and data

science

• A data visualization framework

• Provided as Open Source

• Used by 2.5M+ data scientists, statisticians and analysts

• Taught in most university statistics programs

• New and recent graduates prefer it

• Active and thriving user groups across the world

• CRAN: 7000+ freely available algorithms, test data and

evaluation

• Many of these are applicable to big data if scaled
