WHAT I S “ R ” 
 The R statistical programming language is a free open source package 
based on the S language developed by Bell Labs. 
 The language is very powerful for writing programs. 
 Many statistical functions are already built in. 
 Contributed packages expand the functionality to cutting edge 
research. 
 Since it is a programming language, generating computer code to 
complete tasks is required.
