# The math/R port

## R-2.15.1 – powerful math/statistics/graphics language

## Description

    R is a language and environment for statistical computing and graphics.
    It is a GNU project which is similar to the S language and environment
    which was developed at Bell Laboratories (formerly AT&T, now Lucent
    Technologies) by John Chambers and colleagues. R can be considered as a
    different implementation of S. There are some important differences, but
    much code written for S runs unaltered under R.

    R provides a wide variety of statistical (linear and nonlinear
    modelling, classical statistical tests, time-series analysis,
    classification, clustering, ...) and graphical techniques, and is highly
    extensible.
