Reasons to learn the R Programming Language



Courtney Brown describing why students should learn the R programming language. R is FREE, easy to use, and open source. It is often used to do statistics, but it can also be used for other purposes as well. R has become the primary development language for many statisticians, and undergraduates and graduate students can improve their resume greatly by being able to use R.

A complete online (YouTube) course in statistics using R can be found here:

The assignments for the course can be found here:

Note: The comments in the video relating to Pascal refer to previous corporate support for Pascal that was largely abandoned. There is an evolving “grass roots” version of Pascal called “Free Pascal” that continues development. There is also Object Pascal that has evolved into the Delphi Programming Language.
