Dear John, The first issue of R News had a very nice article by Brian Ripley on accessing databases from R; you'll find it at <http://cran.r-project.org/doc/Rnews/Rnews_2001-1.pdf>. There's also a section on databases in the R Data Import/Export manual, which comes with R. BTW, I don't generally think of this as a topic for beginners, but I suppose that if you have experience with mySQL you'll find it relatively straightforward.
I hope this helps, John -------------------------------- John Fox, Professor Department of Sociology McMaster University Hamilton, Ontario, Canada L8S 4M4 905-525-9140x23604 http://socserv.mcmaster.ca/jfox > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > project.org] On Behalf Of hoogeebear > Sent: January-07-08 8:14 AM > To: r-help@r-project.org > Subject: [R] Just Beginning > > > Hi, > > Im new to "R", I am currently doing a proect for college, in which > questions > are answered and the results are sent to a mySql database.
