I feel the discussion about ease of installation on Linux (/*NIX type systems) isn't really relevant to the Pros and Cons of R.
The problems encountered by people are often a consequence of their lack of knowledge/understanding of the operating system, and not a deficiency of R itself. Just my tuppence, but I consider myself to be competent in using Linux so this view may be somewhat biased, Neil -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Pros-and-Cons-of-R-tp17407521p17510625.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ 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.
