R Statistical Programming Language <www.r-project.org>
-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.
