  • Many people view the end results of all this technology via the Firefox Web browser, also open-source software.
  • R is also the name of a popular programming language used by a growing number of data analysts inside corporations and academia. It is becoming their lingua franca partly because data mining has entered a golden age
  • Companies as diverse as Google, Pfizer, Merck, Bank of America, the InterContinental Hotels Group and Shell use it.
  • R has also quickly found a following because statisticians, engineers and scientists without computer programming skills find it easy to use.
  • Many people view the end results of all this technology via the Firefox Web browser, also open-source software.
  • Most Web sites are displayed using an open-source application called Apache, and companies increasingly rely on the open-source MySQL database to store their critical information. Many people view the end results of all this technology via the Firefox Web browser, also open-source software.
  • For statisticians
  • R is particularly useful because it contains a number of built-in mechanisms for organizing data, running calculations on the information and creating graphical representations of data sets.
  • What makes R so useful
  • is that statisticians, engineers and scientists can improve the software’s code or write variations for specific tasks. Packages written for R add advanced algorithms, colored and textured graphs and mining techniques to dig deeper into databases.
  • The financial services community has demonstrated a particular affinity for R; dozens of packages exist for derivatives analysis alone.

Big Data Right Now: Five Trendy Open Source Technologies | TechCrunch - 0 views

    • Joca Vijo
       
      Aquí nos remarca que el lenguaje R es muy adecuado a la hora de desarrollar proyectos de 'Big Data', o con contenidos ingentes de información, separando y analizando las diversas publicaciones.
  • Because it has an unusually strong community around it, you can find R libraries for almost anything under the sun — making virtually any kind of data science capability accessible without new code. R is exciting because of who is working on it, and how much net-new innovation is happening on a daily basis. the R community is one of the most thrilling places to be in Big Data right now. R is a also wonderful way to future-proof your Big Data program. In the last few months, literally thousands of new features have been introduced, replete with publicly available knowledge bases for every analysis type you’d want to do as an organization.

      El lenguaje r nos permite realizar una gran cantidad de predicciones de mercado y económicas que nunca antes se habian podido sacar con otros lenguajes o métodos.Este lenguaje es utilizado para la realización de predicciones analíticas que ayudan a entender mejor el mercado , las costumbres y las tendencias de los consumidores...Este además es un lenguaje muy joven todavía, al cual se le puede llegar a sacar una gran potencial.
  • Predictive analytics is statistical modeling by any other name. It's used by statisticians and data analysts across all verticals as a means to better understand their organization, both internally and externally. It helps identify trends and patterns, arming CIOs and other enterprise decision makers with the best possible information with which to make their decisions. Predictive analytics has a proven track record in the business intelligence field. Wal-Mart, for one, has used predictive analytics to better understand the habits and tendencies of their customers.
  • : R is still relatively young and is only just now being recognized outside of academic circles. Its practically limitless statistical capabilities make it attractive to anybody doing data analysis, be they a statistics professor or a financial analyst

  • At this point, the future of predictive analytics is pointing directly to R, something we are calling the "perfect storm of predictive analytics."

R Programming/Importing and exporting data - Wikibooks, open books for an open world - 0 views

  • Data can be stored in a large variety of formats. Each statistical package has its own format for data (xls for Microsoft Excel, dta for Stata, sas7bdat for SAS, ...). R can read almost all file formats. We present a method for each kind of file. If none of the following methods work, you can use a specific software for data conversion such as the free software OpenRefine or the commercial software Stat Transfer[1]. In any case, most statistical software can export data in a CSV (comma separated values) format and all of them can read CSV data. This is often the best solution to make data available to everyone.

      Preguntas Frecuentes acerca del lenguaje de programacion R.
  • Can I use R for commercial purposes?
  • R is released under the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2. If you have any questions regarding the legality of using R in any particular situation you should bring it up with your legal counsel. We are in no position to offer legal advice. It is the opinion of the R Core Team that one can use R for commercial purposes (e.g., in business or in consulting). The GPL, like all Open Source licenses, permits all and any use of the package. It only restricts distribution of R or of other programs containing code from R. This is made clear in clause 6 (“No Discrimination Against Fields of Endeavor”) of the Open Source Definition:

  • Why is R named R?
  • The name is partly based on the (first) names of the first two R authors (Robert Gentleman and Ross Ihaka), and partly a play on the name of the Bell Labs language `S'

  • R is an interpreted language; users typically access it through a command-line interpreter.
  • R supports matrix arithmetic

  • R's data structures include scalars, vectors, matrices, data frames (similar to tables in a relational database) and lists.
  • R's extensible object-system includes objects for (among others): regression models, time-series and geo-spatial coordinates.
  • Although mostly used by statisticians and other practitioners requiring an environment for statistical computation and software development, R can also operate as a general matrix calculation toolbox - with performance benchmarks comparable to GNU Octave or MATLAB.
  • "useR!" is the name given to the official annual gathering of R users.

      Hemos elegido consultar la información general sobre R en la versión en inglés de Wikipedia, ya que nos parecía más completa y elaborada. En primer lugar se enumeran las capacidades principales de este lenguaje y algunos de sus principales usos. También se destaca el hecho de que es 'GNU project' y que está disponible bajo licencia GPL. A pesar de ser un lenguaje que utiliza la linea de comandos, se descaca que existen diversas interfaces gráficas para facilitar su uso. En un apartado posterior se enumeran algunas de las principales versiones de estas interfaces. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R_(programming_language)#Graphical_user_interfaces Se destaca en varios de los apartados del artículo la enorme versatilidad y capacidad de adaptación a distintos campos que posee este lenguaje debido a la gran cantidad de paquetes y extensiones que soporta. También se indica que debido a su herencia del lenguaje S, está más dirigido a la programación orientada a objetos que la mayoria de lenguajes estadísticos. Finalmente se destaca el uso comercial que se le ha dado a este lenguaje, y encontramos ejemplos como el de Oracle y el de Revolution Analytics.

Data Mining Algorithms In R - Wikibooks, open books for an open world - 0 views

    • Antonio Legaz
       
      El Data Mining consiste en una serie de algoritmos que mediante el procesamiento de gran cantidad de datos o datasets descubre una serie de patrones en estos.
    • Antonio Legaz
       
      El lenguaje R nos sirve para aplicar la técnica del Data Mining a estos datasets facilitando la tarea y permitiendo obtener patrones que serían imposibles de observar sin la ayuda de ordenadores.  Existen además otros lenguajes, no obstante la característica que destaca de R sobre el resto es que se trata de un lenguaje con licencia libre y es accesible a cualquier empresa, sea cual sea su tamaño. 
  • The choice of the R project as the computational platform associated with this Wikibook stems from its popularity (and thus critical mass), ease of programming, good performance, and an increasing use in several fields, such as bioinformatics and finances, among others.
