Introduction to Rweb
What is R/Rweb?
Any computation that you want to do can be programmed in R. For our purposes,
its real strength is that it has many statistical and graphical capabilities.
A major benefit of R is that it is free software. (Charlie Geyer has a help page about
downloading and installing
R.) R is similar to the commercial product S-Plus. Nearly
everything you can do in R can be done in S-Plus and vice versa.
Rweb is a web interface
to the R package. The Rweb commands are identical to R commands. If
you are going to use R in any serious fashion, you should install it
on your own computer instead of using this web interface.
