History
 R is an implementation of the S programming language.
 S was created by John Chambers while at Bell Labs.
 R was created by Ross Ihaka and Robert Gentleman at the
University of Auckland, New Zealand.
 It is currently developed by the R Development Core Team, of
which Chambers is a member.
 R is named partly after the first names of the first two R
authors and partly as a play on the name of S.

Companies using R: Facebook, Twitter, Goggle, Microsoft,
LinkedIn .
Advantages of R
 Free open source philosophy.
 R has over 4800 packages available from multiple repositories
specializing in topics like econometrics, data mining, spatial
analysis, and bio-informatics.
 Online help and discussion.
 R visualization capabilities .
 Interface with other languages and scripting capabilities
Disadvantages of R
 R has a steep learning curve it does take a while to get used to
the power of R but no steeper than for other statistical
languages. R is not so easy to use for the novice.
 No default parallel execution.
 Top skills needed for high performance computing.
Conclusion
 R is free and open-source, making it possible for anyone to
have access to world-class statistical analysis tools. It is used
widely in academia and the private sector and is the most
popular statistical analysis programming language today.
Learning R isn’t easy — if it was, data scientists wouldn’t be
in such high demand. However, there is no shortage of quality
resources you can use to learn R if you’re willing to put in the
time and effort
Thank you
