R is an integrated suite of software facilities for data manipulation,
calculation and graphical display. Among other things it has

 * an effective data handling and storage facility,

 * a suite of operators for calculations on arrays, in particular
   matrices,

 * a large, coherent, integrated collection of intermediate tools for
   data analysis,

 * graphical facilities for data analysis and display either directly
   at the computer or on hardcopy, and

 * a well developed, simple and effective programming language (called
   `S') which includes conditionals, loops, user defined recursive
   functions and input and output facilities. (Indeed most of the
   system supplied functions are themselves written in the S
   language.)
