ABSTRACT

Computational statistics and statistical computing are two areas within statistics that may be broadly described as computational, graphical, and numerical approaches to solving statistical problems. There are dozens of probability distributions and statistical tests implemented in the R stats package, which is automatically available when using R. The R environment is a suite of software and programming language based on S, for data analysis and visualization. Arrays, data frames, and lists are some of the objects used to store data in R. The R graphics package contains most of the commonly used graphics functions. RStudio provides a convenient user interface that makes R much easier to use for beginners and advanced users. If the workspace is saved before quitting R, the objects created during the session will be saved. Commands entered at the command prompt in the R console are automatically echoed to the console, but assignment operations are silent.
