R programming language

[outstripp]

Has anyone played with a Rev interface for the R programming environment--especially for doing statistics?
How about displaying R graphics in Rev?

It is trivial to put something like this in a field:

Code: Select all

r --vanilla
license()
demo(lm.glm)
xvar=c(10,20,30,40,50)
xvar
demo(graphics)
q()

and then run it in a shell(fld 1) command. But the graphics are lost.

To answer my own question

Code: Select all

xvar=c(10,20,30,40,50,44,55,66,33,44)
mean(xvar)
yvar=c(2,2,3,8,9,3,4,8,6,7)
mean(yvar)
#plot a regression line
png(file="myplot.png")
#par(mfrow=c(2,2))	#put 4 graphs in one frame
plot(xvar,yvar)
abline(lm(yvar~xvar))
dev.off()
q()

and then in Rev:

Code: Select all

import paint from file "myplot.png"

It's cool.

Hi Steve,

In my opinion it is cooler to have R generate the statistics (where relevant) and have Revolution generate the graphs. I think that Revolution has more graphing features.

Best,
