Summary     : A language for data analysis and graphics
Description :
A system for statistical computation and graphics. R consists of a
language plus a run-time environment with graphics, a debugger, access
to certain system functions, and the ability to run programs stored in
script files.

The design of R has been heavily influenced by two existing languages:
Becker, Chambers & Wilks' S and Sussman's Scheme. Whereas the resulting
language is very similar in appearance to S, the underlying implementation
and semantics are derived from Scheme.
