I want to take this numerical methods course where the text is http://www.amazon.com/Numerical-Methods-J-Douglas-Faires/dp/0534407617 . The instructor recommends MATLAB, but states Fortran, C, Mathematica, or Maple will also do the job.
Will R do the job as well? If not, where do you think it will be lacking in the context of this book/course. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
