[en] The objective of this course is to introduce the students to the R language and environment for statistical computing and graphics (a GNU project). In particular, the course proposes effective data handling and storage solutions as well as useful operators for calculations on arrays, in particular matrices. A selected collection of intermediate tools for data analysis, graphical facilities for data analysis and display either on-screen or on hard copy will be illustrated from examples of statistical analyses. Finally, the course will by the way acquaint the students with a well-developed, simple and effective programming language which includes conditionals, loops, user-defined recursive functions and input and output facilities.
