Hi All,
I don't know if this has been reported before, but according to Henrique Dallazuanna's program (below) the number of R packages has exceeded the 3,000 mark. The count today is 3,175. I ran this just a couple of months ago & the number was still in the high 2,000s, so it must be fairly recent. I think this represents about 50% growth in the last year. Not bad! Does anyone have a program that graphs the growth of R packages? I don't know if that historical data is around. Cheers, Bob http://RforSASandSPSSusers.com Henrique's program: > setRepositories() > myPackageNames <- available.packages() --- Please select a CRAN mirror for use in this session --- [I selected them all] > length(unique( rownames(myPackageNames) )) [1] 3175 [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ 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.
