Continuing with our programming series, we will talk about Function – much of all that it entails. Understanding functions is important if you want to learn how to code. The same applies to current ...

A language that's data-intensive naturally should have a way to dig into the data effectively. Here's a look at some of the R functions for searching and sorting through it all. Searching and sorting ...

Computer programs can use data, evaluate if-then conditions on the data and use extremely fast iterative loops to perform these functions. In software programs, these functions get organized into ...

Vectors, lists, arrays, matrices and data frames -- a look at five of the most fundamental data structures built into R. Among my colleagues, R is one of the fastest-growing programming languages.
