[R] R questions

[Christoph Buser]

Hi

There is a very good introduction script to R on 

http://www.r-project.org/

under manuals, including an index of nice functions. For
example you will find the basic plots, how to sort vectors and
so on.

Furthermore have a look at

?RSiteSearch

It is very useful to search in R archives for similar
problems. Lots of answers are already there and only wait to be
found. 
So there is a good chance that you will find the information
that you are looking for in these archives.

Best regards,

Christoph Buser
