초록

R is an open source language for statistical computing and graphics based on the ACM software award-winning S language. R is widely used for data analysis and has become a major vehicle for making available new statistical methodology. This paper presents an overview of the design philosophy and the development model for R, reviews the basic capabilities of the system, and outlines some current projects that will influence future developments of R.
