The project was conceived in 1992, with an initial version released in 1995 and a stable beta version in 2000. R is named partly after the first names of the first two R authors and partly as a play on the name of S. R was created by Ross Ihaka and Robert Gentleman at the University of Auckland, New Zealand, and is currently developed by the R Development Core Team (of which Chambers is a member). There are some important differences, but much of the code written for S runs unaltered. S was created by John Chambers in 1976, while at Bell Labs. R is an implementation of the S programming language combined with lexical scoping semantics, inspired by Scheme. Although R has a command line interface, there are several graphical user interfaces, such as RStudio, an integrated development environment. Pre-compiled binary versions are provided for various operating systems. Ī GNU package, source code for the R software environment is written primarily in C, Fortran and R itself, and is freely available under the GNU General Public License. as of May 2019, R ranks 21st in the TIOBE index, a measure of popularity of programming languages. Polls, data mining surveys, and studies of scholarly literature databases show substantial increases in popularity in recent years. The R language is widely used among statisticians and data miners for developing statistical software and data analysis.
R is a programming language and free software environment for statistical computing and graphics supported by the R Foundation for Statistical Computing. 3.6.0 ('Planting of a Tree') / Ap 34 days ago
