[R] Windows 10 Application Compatibility Check | FreeWare R Statistical Environment v3.2.2

[John C Frain]

When I first graduated some 50 years ago I worked in the Department of
Finance. On small piece of my work involved getting CPI data from the CSO
and doing some calculations. A specific person in the CSO (Central
Statistics Office) usually supplied this information and this fact was
always recorded on the file. On one occasion I could not contact that
person and I visited the department library and extracted the information
myself. When my boss saw that I had not contacted the CSO I was instructed
to contact them and repeat the calculation. It was explained to me that if
I contacted the CSO we could blame someone outside the Department of
Finance if they supplied the information.

It appears that Citi Architecture & Technology Engineering are behaving in
a similar way.  Are they trying to find some excuse to deny their users
access to R on the grounds that it is not "properly" supported. This does
happen in large organisations.

If any one knows of some organisation that is willing to provide support to
Citi (for a respectable fee) there might be a bit of money to be made.
